6CHEM1101: Chemistry 1A


Note:  This unit is discontinued from 2018. Replacement unit is CHEM1111.
6Science Junior Units


Note:  Science/Engineering(Hons) combined degrees require 240 credit points, comprising 96 credit points from Science subject areas, with a major in one Science discipline, plus units prescribed for the Engineering specialisation. Science units forming part of core requirements in the Biomedical Engineering specialisation may be counted as part of the 96 credit point Science requirement. Consult resolutions for Combined Engineering(Hons) /Science degree in Faculty handbooks for further details.

Note:  Note: This unit is discontinued from 2018. Replacement unit is MATH1021.

Note:   In the BE/BSc program the 18 cp of core subjects MATH#### and CHEM1101 may count to both the science and the engineering degrees. For all subjects which fall in this category the student must fulfill the credit point requirements for the combined degree by completing additional Biomedical electives and/or Science subjects.

MATH1001 and MATH1002 may be replaced by advanced units MATH1901 and MATH1902.

Note:   Sufficient Science Units of Study at Intermediate and Senior levels need to be spread over 3rd and 4th year to meet the 96cp requirement of the Science component. Students must also ensure they meet the requirements for a Science Major which is typically 24cp of senior science units in a specific field of study (consult the Science Handbook). Note, Science units in the common core of 1st year and 2nd year contribute to the BSc total. Therefore a minimum of an additional 60cp (10 units) must be completed in order to meet the 96cp of Science requirement.

Course: Biomedical /Science (2017)
CP Required: 240
Min FT Duration: 5.00 Years
Min PT Duration: 5.00 Years
Faculty/School: Faculty of Engineering
Years Offered: 2025, 2024, 2023, 2022, 2021, 2020, 2019, 2018, 2017, 2016, 2015
Requirements: In summary the requirements are:

Students must complete 240 credit points as follows:

Engineering (156 credit points):

► 36 credit points of Engineering core units (12cp of MATH1* count towards Science requirements)

► 84 credit points of Biomedical Stream core units

► A minimum 18 credit points of Biomedical Specialist elective units

► 6 credit points of Engineering Systems units

► 6 credit points of Bioelectronics and Biomedical Control units

Science:

► 84 credit points of Science units

The handbook rules governing this degree are as follows:

To qualify for the award of the combined degree:

(a) For all Bachelor of Engineering combined degrees a candidate must complete 240 credit points and satisfy any additional requirements specified.

(b) Where the requirements specified in the following clauses account for less than the total required credit, candidates must complete additional units of study from the tables relevant to the Bachelor of Engineering as may be necessary to satisfy the requirements of the degree.

Requirements for the Bachelor of Engineering

For the Bachelor of Engineering component of a combined degree:

(a) The units of study that may be taken for the Bachelor of Engineering component of the combined degree are set out in the tables of units of study for the Bachelor of Engineering single degree;

(b) Except where approved, all candidates must complete a minimum of 144 credit points comprising:

(i) 36cp from the Engineering Core Table, including all required units;

(ii) 108cp from the Engineering Stream Core Table pertaining to the specialist stream being undertaken, including all required units;

(c) The Faculty Board may approve, based on appropriate academic justification, a list of approved unit alternatives. These alternatives specify, for particular Engineering stream / combined degree combinations, units within the normal requirements for the Bachelor of Engineering component of the combined degree that can be replaced by specified alternative units that would form part of the normal program for single degree students in that stream.

Candidates who do not meet the requirements for the award of the Bachelor of Engineering Honours but who have otherwise satisfied the requirements of the Bachelor of Engineering shall graduate with the Bachelor of Engineering pass degree.

Requirements for the Bachelor of Science

For the Bachelor of Science component of a combined degree:

(a) The units of study that may be taken are listed in Table 1 from the Faculty of Science.

(b) Candidates must complete 96 credit points of Science units of study, including at least one major in a Science subject area.

(c) Candidates completing the Bachelor of Science in the Advanced or the Advanced Mathematics stream must include as part of the above requirements:

(i) a minimum of 54 credit points of intermediate or senior Science units of study, of which at least 36 credit points shall be completed at either the Advanced level or as Talented Student Program (TSP) units of study; and

(ii) a minimum of 24 credit points of senior Science units of study at either the Advanced level or as TSP units in a single Science subject area.

Candidates for the award of the Bachelor of Science (Honours) who do not meet the requirements, and who have not already graduated, will be awarded Bachelor of Science pass degree.

Engineering Honours Requirements

(a) an EWAM of at least 65 immediately prior to the semester in which a thesis unit of study is first attempted; and

(b) have an EIHWAM of at least 65 at the completion of the degree; and

(c) complete the requirements within a time limit of 5 years for a single Bachelor of Engineering Honours degree or complete the requirements within a time limit of 6 years for a combined Bachelor of Engineering Honours combined degree.

Candidates who satisfy the requirements for the Engineering degree, but who have not satisfied each of Clauses (a), (b) and (c), will qualify for the award of the Bachelor of Engineering degree (i.e. the PASS degree, awarded without Honours).

Advanced units in Maths and Science

Most units of study offered by the Science Faculty on the list of core requirements can be replaced by an equivalent advanced level unit; subject to prerequisite conditions (as required by the Faculty of Science) being met. Students considering doing advanced options should seek advice from their department before enrolling.

Study Abroad

Students undertaking Study Abroad in a particular year of their degree must enrol in the appropriate International Exchange Program units of study as an alternative to a semester`s standard units.

Permission from the relevant Head of School must be sought prior to enrolling in exchange units of study.
