Master of Health Leadership and Management/Master of Global Health in Extension - (Dual degree)

at University of New South Wales - Kensington Campus Australia

Petroleum Engineers work with oil or gas companies to design, test and implement efficient methods to extract petroleum products from the earth and sea floor. They use their knowledge and skills to make estimations about what is going on thousands of metres below the ground. Petroleum Engineers rely on physical, mathematical and engineering principles to identify and solve problems in exploration, exploitation, drilling and production.

They work closely with other professionals, such as geologists, to locate the dig site, design and build the machines that extract as much oil and gas as possible. They also oversee the removal and processing of the petroleum itself. Petroleum engineers address the economic and management problems associated with the recovery of hydrocarbons and alternative sources of energy from below the Earth’s surface. Petroleum engineers apply practical science to the challenges and problems associated with oil and gas exploration, drilling and petroleum production. In this career you’ll focus on the environment, and how we can meet global energy needs in a long-term, sustainable manner.

In this career you’ll apply knowledge of chemistry, physics, geology and economics to the discovery, development and production of energy and material resources below the Earth’s surface. This knowledge can also be used to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and geothermal resources engineering.

Combine  Economics with applied advanced skills in Science and an Honours research project. This unique double degree will prepare you to discover and drive solutions to the world’s biggest challenges.

Economics is an influential social science that explores human behaviour and decision-making. Economists focus on the roles of incentives, resource constraints, laws, customs, and institutions. Through the Bachelor of Economics, you’ll explore how the decisions of institutions and individuals interact to determine outcomes for the economy and society.

The Bachelor of Advanced Science (Honours) allows you to choose from 26 majors across the physical, natural and human sciences. It gives you the flexibility to explore the areas of science you’re passionate in and undertake a supervised research project in your honours year. It will prepare you for a career at the forefront of scientific discovery and innovation.

The Bachelor of Design/Bachelor of Media is a four-year double degree that shows you how to enlighten others with creative thinking and persuasive communications. Learn strategies to interest, inform, and inspire others while challenging conventions and designing new solutions to old problems.  

Whether your interest is in graphics, textiles, visualisation or object design, creating spaces or user experiences, rethinking everyday products and services, or writing code to develop future focused design ideas – you'll see how design can influence the future.

Blend your creative insight with influential skills in public relations and advertising, communications and journalism, screen production, cinema studies, or media studies. You'll build real industry knowledge, learning from experts in practical and theoretical classes. And with solid opportunities for work experiences, you’ll unlock the expertise needed to establish a career far beyond your first job.
