It depends. Eligibility for a Master's in Mining Engineering in Australia with a Bachelor's in Computer Science and Engineering varies by university.

- Many universities require a prior degree in engineering or a closely related field.
- Some may consider applicants with a computer science background if you have relevant work experience or have completed prerequisite courses.
- Certain universities offer Graduate Diploma programs in Mining Engineering as a pathway if you don't meet direct entry requirements.

Admission criteria and pathways differ, so review the specific requirements of your target universities.
