Course Overview

Outline

The Bachelor of Science (Honours) (Chemical Sciences)/Master of Engineering (Materials) is available to high-achieving students, enabling them to undertake a program of study in chemical sciences and materials engineering in only five years with this degree combination. It prepares students with a broad-based foundation in chemistry before continuing to the masters, which provides an understanding of advanced processing and fabrication methods of engineering materials and their characterisation. Chemical and materials engineering is the principle of turning raw materials into valuable and useful products for society by combining the knowledge of scientific disciplines such as physics, maths and chemistry together with the integration of engineering principles. New materials give products their functional and aesthetic properties with the consideration that they must also be economically viable and maintain safety and environmental standards. This double degree equips students with the ability to combine chemically founded scientific and engineering solutions in order to problem solve. Potential occupations include: materials engineer; materials testing engineer; patent examiner; project engineer/manager; project engineering officer; technical sales executive; analytical chemist; and forensic chemist.

Admissions Criteria

Recent secondary

Qualify for the South Australian Certificate of Education (SACE) or equivalent recent year 12 qualification (including the International Baccalaureate Diploma), and achieve a competitive selection rank.
Year 11 Grades Pathway: Applicants who have not achieved the Selection Rank required for automatic selection into their preferred program may be offered based on their year 11 subject grades from SA, VIC or NSW border schools.
Research Project B: If you have strong results in the SACE Research Project B subject you will be considered for entry into this course on your Year 12 results combined with your Research Project B performance. If the combined score does not result in an enhanced selection rank, you will compete in the normal way.
UniTEST: If you are completing an Australian Year 12 qualification this year, uniTEST is available to enhance your chances of getting into this course. We will select students based on Year 12 results combined with uniTEST performance. If you take the test and don’t do so well, don’t worry, we will only consider your ATAR Selection Rank.

If you have studied at higher education level for a total of more than two years, you are not eligible to use your year 12 results.

Higher Ed

Completed or partially completed a recognised higher education program at a recognised higher education institution, or
Completed a University Foundation Studies, Bridging or Enabling program

Work-Life Other

Completed a non-recent SACE or equivalent secondary education qualification with a competitive selection rank, including the International Baccalaureate Diploma (IB), or
Special Tertiary Admissions Test (STAT)

If you have studied at higher education level in the last two years, you must not have accumulated more than a total of two full-time years of higher education study in order to use your STAT results.

VET

Completed an award from a registered training organisation at Certificate III level or above. TAFElink is a guaranteed entry pathway if you’ve completed a TAFE/VET Certificate IV or higher level qualification (provided you meet the course prerequisite requirements). Guaranteed entry levels are published at TAFElink
