Course Overview: Students studying the BA/BE degree should consult the BE single degree course structure for a current list of core engineering subjects. The following exceptions are applicable to the BA/BE degree:
  • 620-141 Mathematics A and 620-143 Applied Mathematics may be replaced by 620-121 Mathematics A (Advanced) and 620-123 Applied Mathematics (Advanced) with permission of Department of Mathematics and Statistics;
  • 121-021 Environmental Politics and Management and 121-018 Geomorphology may be counted as Arts points.

Students should regularly check the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering's course advice page for additional information and up-to-date course advice available on the web.

The combined degree of Bachelor of Engineering (Environmental)/Bachelor of Arts requires a total of 500 points over five years. Students are required to complete 300 points of Engineering subjects and 200 points of Arts subjects.

When setting the timetable every effort will be made to avoid clashes between the times of classes associated with these sets of subjects. Students should be aware however, that if it proves to be impossible to achieve a timetable without clashes in these sets of subjects, the Faculty reserves the right to modify course structures in order to eliminate the conflicts. Students will be advised during the enrolment period of the semester if the recommended courses need to be varied. Students in combined degrees should plan their courses so that the subjects chosen in the other faculty do not clash with those recommended for the engineering component.
