Note: Specialisations in the Biomedical Stream

A stream specialisation is a subset of stream electives relevant to a particular aspect of Biomedical Engineering, such as Biomedical Computation.
A breadth specialisation broadens your knowledge outside the field of Biomedical Engineering, in areas such as Engineering Data Science, or Innovation and Entrepreneurship. If you opt to take a breadth specialisation, it takes the place of the free electives.
Alternatively, you may choose to take a second stream specialisation in place of the free electives.

You have 4 specialisation combinations to choose from in the Biomedical stream:

Stream electives [36cp] + free electives [24cp] (no specialisation option) or
1 stream specialisation [30cp] + 1 stream elective [6cp] + free electives [24cp] or
1 stream specialisation [30cp] + 1 stream elective [6cp] + 1 breadth specialisation [24cp] (no free electives) or
2 stream specialisations [30cp each] (no free or stream electives)

Completion of a specialisation is optional. Students not wishing to complete a specialisation should select Biomedical Stream Electives in Sydney Student `My studies`.

Block 7 - Free Electives (Max CP: 24)

Note: Students may take 24 credit points of free electives to complete the total number of credit points for their degree. Students may take the following units of study as free electives, provided they satisfy any prerequisite, quota, departmental permission or any other requirements of the units, and the units are not essentially the same or prohibited units for any of the other units in their degree.

(1) Any units of study from the Faculty of Engineering available to undergraduate students

(2) Any unit of study from Table S

Students may choose to do a breadth specialisation instead of free electives.
