Conjoint Bachelor of Engineering with Honours and Social and Environmental Sustainability

University of Canterbury

Conjoint degrees are accelerated programmes for high-achieving students. They combine two degrees in as little as four to five years. Accelerated programmes require 60 points fewer than a double degree, but have a higher workload at 135 points a year, and a minimum sustained Grade Point Average. Learn more about conjoint degrees at UC.

A conjoint degree with the Bachelor of Engineering with Honours must include the compulsory first year courses and work placement course, the requirements of one discipline, and a minimum of 315 points above 100-level, with 90 points at 400-level.

A conjoint degree with the Bachelor of Social and Environmental Sustainability must include all of the compulsory courses and one internship course, the requirements for one major, and a minimum of 180 points (or 165 with the BE(Hons) conjoint) above 100-level, with 60 points (or 90 with the BE(Hons) conjoint) at 300-level.

You must graduate in both parts of the conjoint at the same time.

If you do not meet these requirements or decide not to continue with your conjoint degree, you may instead transfer completed courses to one of the degrees within the conjoint, or to the Certificate of Commerce or the Certificate of Science, with permission from the relevant Deans.
