Block 10 - Science Units (Min CP: 72,Max CP: 72)
Note:
Candidates must complete 84 credit points of Science study, including at least one major in a Science subject area and 6 credit points of OLEs. (Math units taken as part of the Engineering component meet the requirement of 12 cp of Science core, therefore students complete 72 cp Science total.)
See Science faculty handbook for list of Science units and majors: http://sydney.edu.au/handbooks/science/
| Course: | Mechanical (Space) / Science (2025) |
| 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, 2016, 2015 |
| Requirements: | Summary In summary the requirements are: Students must complete 240 credit points as follows: Engineering (168 credit points): ► 6 credit points of Introductory Computing units table ► 12 credit points of Foundations Mathematics units table ► 30 credit points of Project table ► The Professional Engagement Program comprising ENGP1001 (0cp), ENGP1002 (0cp), ENGP1003 (0cp), ENGP2001 (0cp), ENGP2002 (0cp), ENGP2003 (0cp), ENGP3001 (0cp) and ENGP3002 (0cp) ► 120 credit points of Mechanical (Space) stream core units Science (ˆ84 credit points) ► *12 credit points of Science degree core units (12 cp of MATH1XXX in Engineering Core meets this requirement and is counted toward both the BEHons and BSc total) ► *48 credit points of Table A major ► 6 credit points of OLE units ► 18 credit points of electives from Science Table A or Table S * The Science degree core units comprise 12 cp of MATH1XXX units and 12cp of 1000-level units from Table A. The 1000-level units from the Table A major count towards Science degree core requirement. If you are taking a Mathematics major, you must complete 12 cp of other 1000-level Science Table A units. ˆ With Math units taken as part of the Engineering component, students take 72 cp of Science units in total. Dalyell Scholars Program Students in the Dalyell Scholars program can review the Dalyell Canvas page for information on fitting the program into their degree: https://canvas.sydney.edu.au/courses/7156/pages/enrolment-options-for-dalyell-scholars 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 school before enrolling.
