1. Overview

Course: Biomedical Engineering / Science (2013)
CP Required: 240
Min FT Duration: 5.00 Years
Min PT Duration: N/A
Faculty/School: University Archive
Years Offered: 2014, 2013

2. Requirements

To qualify for the award of a combined Engineering/Science degree a student shall complete units of study to a total value of at least 240 credit points including:

* 96 credit points from science subject areas

* units of study as prescribed in the BE Specialisation Requirement tables for the specialisation that the student is pursuing, and

* a major in a science area.

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.

Engineering Honours

Students in the Honours program must enrol in AMME4111 & AMME4112. Students in the Pass program must enrol in AMME4121 & AMME4122.

Note: Sufficient Science Units of Study at Intermediate and Senior levels must be spread over 3rd and 4th year to meet the 96cp requirement of the Science component of this degree. Students must also ensure they meet the requirements for a Science Major, which is typically 24cp of Senior Science units (consult the Science Handbook). Note, Science units in the common core of 1st year (30cp) and 2nd year (6cp) contribute 36cp of Science units. Therefore, a minimum of an additional 60cp (10 units) must be completed in order to meet the 96cp of Science requirement. In addition, the 1st and 2nd year Science course structure contributes another 24cp of Science units. As a result, 24cp of Science units are generally undertaken in 3rd/4th year. These Science unit requirements can be met with EITHER Biomedical Engineering Selected Core Units OR additional Science units at the Senior (3XXX) level.
