About

Dive into our exciting new Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) with Charles Sturt University. Shape the future of engineering – and your career. Choose from civil, electrical or mechanical engineering. With our ‘2 + 2’ format, you’ll do two years on campus and then two years of paid cadetships within industry working on real engineering projects – anywhere you like – to gain real-world paid experience.

Complete a common foundational first year to see what sparks your interest. In second year, you’ll choose from civil, mechanical or electrical and continue with hands-on project-based learning that brings your ideas to life. For the final two years on cadetship, you can expect to work a four-day week with industry, then study online for one day a week.

Plus, we have 25 x $20,000 Transgrid Engineering scholarships available each year to give you a head start on your journey. This is more than just an engineering degree – it's your chance to unleash your potential and make a real impact in the engineering world!
