Bachelor of Human Services/Bachelor of Criminology and Criminal Justice (Dual Degree)

at Griffith University - Gold Coast Campus Australia

You will gain a strong foundation in the physical and biomedical sciences, as well as practical business and management skills and knowledge. You will develop an understanding of how both our bodies and the sports industry work.

From biotechnology to sports to submarines, if you want a hand in designing and implementing the software systems our society depends on, Griffith's Bachelor of Software Engineering (Honours) is the ideal path for you.

You'll learn in state-of-the-art facilities from passionate, experienced teachers. You'll be engineering from day one, with a solid foundation in mathematics, computer systems, engineering principles and information systems. In your second year, you'll explore computer algorithms, object-oriented programming, business analysis, computer network essentials and more.

Along the way, you'll gain vital skills and knowledge in fields such as mobile app development, network security and project management. You'll also address the key social and professional issues facing software engineers as the 21st century - and humanity's complex relationship with devices - continues to develop.

Industry and expert connections
At Griffith, we prioritise industry engagement in everything we teach. Our degrees also have a practical foundation, so you know what you're learning will be relevant to your career long after you graduate. You'll gain valuable skills in teamwork, project management and quality management as you complete project work developing software for real clients.

Your learning experience will involve practising engineers directly through your laboratory and tutorial sessions. Additionally, your teachers will draw on their professional experience in choosing lab activities, projects and/or case studies, and problems. You'll also be exposed to the realities of current industry practice through a range of field trip opportunities.

Now you can combine the creative skills of industrial design with the practical solutions of mechanical engineering. This double degree will arm you with the techniques and technical skills you need to excel in this vibrant industry.

You'll study a combination of in-depth theoretical frameworks that make up the mechanical engineering discipline, including project planning and management. Plus, you'll learn industrial design principles and concepts like development, problem-solving and modelmaking.

So much more than just theory, this degree gets you learning hands-on from year one and delivers you a qualification that employers find hard to ignore.
