Why study Engineering Science at Flinders?
This course has significant commonality with the other Bachelor of Engineering awards. Consequently, students who are performing well and wish to transfer to another Bachelor of Engineering award can do so with minimal loss of time.
We have an international reputation for our teaching, student support programs/services and research. We are committed to assisting students to succeed in their studies and move into their chosen career. Flinders graduates have a higher full time employment rate than the South Australian average. (Graduate Careers Australia Graduate Destinations Data 2006).
- In a recent survey, 90% of those asked described our graduates as good to excellent. Rated particularly highly was the way our students think and how quickly they contribute to an organisation. In any year around one-third of our students undertake work experience or practicum placements as part of their study program. Students find this direct industry experience invaluable. Employers understand the benefits and appreciate the involvement.
