Yes. The Bachelor of Engineering (Advanced Manufacturing and Mechatronics)(Honours)/Bachelor of Business is fully accredited by Engineers Australia. Graduates are eligible for graduate and/or professional membership of Engineers Australia. Because Engineers Australia is a signatory to the Washington Accord, the qualification is internationally recognised and graduates can practise as professional engineers in many countries. Note: The Bachelor of Business component is not accredited by any external professional body.
Domestic students may be offered a Commonwealth Supported Place (CSP), where tuition fees are subsidised by the Australian Government. In 2026, the annual student contribution for a standard full-time year ranges from AU$4,738 to AU$17,399 depending on the discipline bands of enrolled subjects (engineering/science subjects fall in the AU$9,537 band; business/law subjects in the AU$17,399 band). A Student Services and Amenities Fee (SSAF) of up to AU$373 also applies. Eligible students can defer fees through HECS-HELP and SA-HELP loan schemes.

Honestly I was lost when I first started looking at Australian colleges. There are just too many options and every agent gives you different info. A friend told me about FindTheCourses and within a week I had shortlisted 3 programs that actually matched my budget and visa situation. My advisor Sanjay was super helpful — never felt like I was being pushed into anything.
