Engineering Masters Dual Award

Who is eligible?

Selection is based on academic merit (cumulative GPA) through the School of Engineering.

You must be currently enrolled in one of the following single award programs:

• Master of Engineering (Aerospace) MC225
• Master of Engineering (International Automotive Engineering) MC230
• Master of Science (Mechanical Engineering) MC258.

If you are interested in this program, contact your Program Manager in the first semester of study at RMIT for study plan advice.

Where can I go?

• Master of Engineering (Aerospace) students and Master of Engineering (International Automotive Engineering) – University of Applied Sciences Aachen, Germany
• Master of Engineering (International Automotive Engineering) – Technical University Ingolstadt, Germany
• Master of Science (Mechanical Engineering) – University of Stuttgart, Germany

Each program has a specific set of courses that must be studied either at RMIT or at the partner institution. Contact your Program Manager for more details.

How much will it cost?

Masters dual degree students do not have to pay tuition fees to the host institution. You will continue to pay your domestic or international student fees to RMIT. While studying overseas you remain enrolled as an RMIT student, paying fees and accruing HECS as usual.

Costs vary depending on your destination. As a guide, we recommend you budget at least AU$2,000 for accommodation and living expenses for each month you will be overseas.

You need to have sufficient funds to finance a semester/s overseas. You may be asked to provide evidence of your financial security when applying for your  visa.

There are heaps of scholarships, grants and government support available to support students wishing to study overseas. See Financial assistance for more information.
