Bachelor of Materials Engineering (Honours)

The four-year Bachelor of Materials Engineering (Honours) program will be completed at their Clayton campus in Melbourne, Australia, with the first two years spent in Malaysia. While pursuing an engineering degree of the highest calibre, immerse yourself in two academic and cultural contexts.
A special contribution is made by materials engineers, who work to improve existing materials as well as create new ones. They improve objects' strength, weight, and functionality while also making them more affordable and sustainable. All facets of engineering, manufacturing, and health sciences are supported by their contributions, whether it's developing new kinds of solar cells and batteries, a biodegradable tissue scaffold for growing organs from stem cells, or a lighter and more powerful jet engine.
