2. Requirements

1. 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.

2. The Mathematics, Physics and Information Technology units of study may be replaced by equivalent advanced level units of study (if available) subject to prerequisite conditions being met.

3. Students in the Honours program must enrol in ELEC4712 & ELEC4713, students in the Pass Program must enrol in ELEC4710 & ELEC4711.

3. Semesters

Year 1 - Semester 1

Type CP CP From
Core
6 ENGG1805: Professional Engineering and IT
Core
6 INFO1103: Introduction to Programming
Core
3 MATH1001: Differential Calculus
Core
3 MATH1002: Linear Algebra
6 Select from Unit Block:
Selected Junior Science Units


Note: Science/Engineering 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 Electrical Engineering specialisation may be counted as part of the 96 credit point Science requirement. Consult resolutions for Combined Engineering /Science degree in Faculty handbooks for further details.

Note: At the end of semester 1 students choose a stream of Engineering for which they are eligible. Studnets transfer to that stream to complete the degree.

4. Pathways
