2. Requirements

This combined degree involves a total of six years of study. The Engineering component is completed in the first four years. Years 5 and 6 are completed entirely in the Sydney Law School and involve no Engineering units.

During the first four years, you must:

1. Complete 144 credit points of Engineering core and recommended units of study as described in the Faculty of Engineering Resolutions.

2. Complete the 48 credit points of LAWS units shown in the tables below.

See Sydney Law School handbook for further detaills of law requirements: http://sydney.edu.au/handbooks/law/

Many of the Science units in these tables have advanced level equivalents. The normal units are shown here.
