This combined degree program of five years full-time study enables students to add their choice of an Arts major to the standard, professionally accredited engineering program offered by the School of Surveying & Spatial Information Systems. The program authority for the combined degree is the School of Surveying & Spatial Information Systems. The program is open to all students who satisfy both the Surveying & Spatial Information Systems and Arts entry conditions.

The program provides flexibility in the choice of courses within the full Arts program and enables students to gain a broad education in Arts & Social Sciences, as well as to undertake specialised studies in Surveying & Spatial Information Systems.

From 2006 students may also apply via the "Faculty of Engineering Admission Scheme (FEAS)" ... FEAS FAQs

This combined program is not offered in an external mode (e.g. distance / correspondence) or part time mode (in the sense of evening classes only).

Attendance during the day is required for many of the courses. However it is possible to spread the degree over more years and do only a few courses each semester. There are two semesters of 14 weeks of classes each, per year, plus some exam weeks, allowing many other weeks per year for full time employment. This allows students to work some days per week, and study/ attend on other days.

In 2006 a revised program is being introduced, that ultimately will lead to a new BE/BA program. In 2006 a "flexible first year" will allow students to select several elective courses from across the faculty and delay selection of which engineering specialty they wish to follow until the second year. In 2007 the revised year two will be introduced, in 2008 the revised year three, and so on.
