Available streams include STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics), Art, Design and Architecture, Business, and Communication and Social Context.

Prospective students are encouraged to contact an RMIT international advisor for assistance with their application and to determine the most suitable study option.

Double Degree - Bachelor of Science - Applied Chemistry & Bachelor of Engineering - Chemical Engineering (Honours) (BH098SCI24) (117798G) The RMIT Bachelor of Science / Bachelor of Engineering (Chemical Engineering) (Honours) combines chemistry, analytical sciences, and chemical engineering to prepare students for roles at the forefront of technological innovation. The program develops strong theoretical knowledge in analytical, instrumental, organic, inorganic, and physical chemistry, alongside hands-on laboratory experience.

The chemical engineering component integrates scientific principles with practical design and industry-focused applications, providing a strong vocational emphasis. Throughout the degree, students engage in a variety of learning formats, including tutorials, laboratories, site visits, online learning, and both individual and group work. Laboratory experience plays a key role in applying theoretical knowledge while developing teamwork and time management skills.

Assessment methods include exams, assignments, presentations, laboratory and project reports, in-class discussions, and other tasks depending on subject selection. Learning at RMIT is designed to be interactive and applied, with course content often delivered through online materials such as readings and videos, which support active, on-campus learning experiences using specialised facilities and equipment.
