| SITS Diet Block/Type | CP | Unit of Study/Unit Block |
Note: Specialisations in the Aeronautical Stream
- A stream specialisation is a subset of stream electives relevant to a particular aspect of Aeronautical Engineering, such as Flight Data Analysis.
- A breadth specialisation broadens your knowledge outside the field of Aeronautical Engineering, in areas such as Humanitarian Engineering or Innovation and Entrepreneurship. If you opt to take a breadth specialisation, it takes the place of your free electives.
You have 3 specialisation combinations to choose from in the Aeronautical Stream:
- 1 stream specialisation [18cp] + 1 free elective [6cp] or
- 1 breadth specialisation [24cp] (no free electives) or
- Stream electives or free electives [24cp] (no specialisation option)
