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.
