Note:
To be eligible for this major, students are required to meet progression requirements.. There are ATAR or WAM (>75%) entry requirements for enrolment in this major.
This Engineering major can be taken along with any of the listed Commerce majors.
Students undertaking this major are not required to do Integrated Engineering units (ENGG1111, ENGG2111, ENGG3111, ENGG4111), and are exempt from AERO2703 and AERO4460.
Note:
Complete a minimum of 36cp including:
- ENGP1000 (0cp), ENGP2000 (0cp) and ENGP3000 (0cp)
- Exactly 12cp of MATH1xxx units: MATH1021 Calculus of One Variable (3cp) AND MATH1002 Linear Algebra (3cp) AND MATH1023 Multivariable Calculus and Modelling (3cp) AND MATH1005 Statistics (3cp)
- A minimum of 12cp of (see note 1) from either AMME4111-4112 Thesis A & B (6cp+6cp) OR CHNG4811-CHNG4812 Thesis A & B (6cp+6cp) OR CIVL4022-4023 Thesis A & B (6cp+6cp) OR ELEC4712-4713 Thesis A & B (6cp+6cp) OR AMME4010 Major Industrial Project (24cp) OR CHNG4203 Major Industrial Project (24cp) OR ELEC4714 Major Industrial Project (24cp)
Note 1. All Thesis A units are mutually prohibited (meaning that only one can be completed), and all Thesis B units have the associated Thesis A unit as a pre-requisite. Students may undertake only the Thesis units relevant to their stream.
