Others are involved in field studiesworking on site. Most manage to combine both officeand field work in an exciting, challenging and rewardingcareer.Professional RecognitionThis degree is fully accredited by Engineers Australia.Substantial or complete recognition of the degree isalso given in most countries around the world.Combined ProgramsBE (Environmental Engineering)/Bachelor of ArtsProgram code 3626FacultyEngineeringMin. years 5 yearsUOC (per year/total) 48/240Semester 2 entry Yes*Est. first year tuition A$27,960Est. fee to complete A$151,820Assumed Knowledge Maths, Physics and ChemistryOnline Handbook www.handbook.unsw.edu.au/undergraduate/programs/2010/3626.htmlWebsitewww.civeng.unsw.edu.auBE (Environmental Engineering)/Bachelor of CommerceProgram code 3715FacultyEngineeringMin. years 5.5 yearsUOC (per year/total) 48/264Semester 2 entry Yes*Est. first year tuition A$27,960Est. fee to complete A$180,820Assumed Knowledge Maths, Physics and ChemistryOnline Handbook www.handbook.unsw.edu.au/undergraduate/programs/2010/3715.htmlWebsitewww.civeng.unsw.edu.auBE (Environmental Engineering)/Bachelor of ScienceProgram code 3735FacultyEngineeringMin. years 5 yearsUOC (per year/total) 48/240Semester 2 entry Yes*Est. first year tuition A$27,960Est. fee to complete A$163,280Assumed Knowledge Maths, Physics and ChemistryOnline Handbook www.handbook.unsw.edu.au/undergraduate/programs/2010/3735.htmlWebsitewww.civeng.unsw.edu.au* Students starting an Engineering program in Semester 2may be required to complete summer semesters.
