Environmental engineering appealed to me immediately,’ she said. She also had a strong interest in Japan after studying Japanese in high school and completing a student exchange to Tokyo. Now, she’s combined her interests—she’s studying a double degree in environmental engineering and business management at Griffith and is on her way to complete a semester of study at Hiroshima University as a recipient of a 2016 New Colombo Plan scholarship. Casey Macfarlane – Bachelor of Engineering (Environmental Engineering)/ Bachelor of Business (Management) After identifying the wide-ranging opportunities a double degree could offer, sports enthusiast Carlo Alimboyong combined a business degree with a major in sport management with a degree in exercise science. Carlo says he’s gained an appreciation of how sport management relates to the not-for-profit sector and sport at a grassroots level. He also enjoys the spread-out workload of a double degree. ‘It’s a good balance,’ he said. Carlo Alimboyong – Bachelor of Exercise Science/Bachelor of Business ‘I would like to open and run my own clinical practice in the future, and my double degree has given me a greater understanding of what’s involved from a business point of view.’ TION TIP A PPLICA ur nces on yo You can apply for a double degree through the Queensland Tertiary Admissions Centre (QTAC) or the University Admissions Centre (UAC: New South Wales-based admissions system, available for degrees at our Gold Coast campus only).
