| Requirements: | In summary the requirements are: Students must complete 288 credit points as follows: Engineering (144 credit points): ► 36 credit points of Engineering core units ► 108 credit points of Civil stream core units Laws: ► 144 credit points of Laws core units The handbook rules governing this degree are as follows: To qualify for the award of the combined degree: (a) For the Bachelor of Engineering and Bachelor of Laws combined degree, a candidate must complete 288 credit points and any additional requirements specified in the following clauses. (b) Where the requirements specified in the following clauses account for less than the total required credit, candidates must complete additional units of study from the tables relevant to the Bachelor of Engineering as may be necessary to satisfy the requirements of the degree. Requirements for the Bachelor of Engineering For the Bachelor of Engineering component of a combined degree: (a) The units of study that may be taken for the Bachelor of Engineering component of the combined degree are set out in the tables of units of study for the Bachelor of Engineering single degree; (b) Except where approved, all candidates must complete a minimum of 144 credit points comprising: (i) 36cp from the Engineering Core Table, including all required units; (ii) 108cp from the Engineering Stream Core Table pertaining to the specialist stream being undertaken, including all required units; (c) The Faculty Board may approve, based on appropriate academic justification, a list of approved unit alternatives. These alternatives specify, for particular Engineering stream / combined degree combinations, units within the normal requirements for the Bachelor of Engineering component of the combined degree that can be replaced by specified alternative units that would form part of the normal program for single degree students in that stream. Requirements for the Bachelor of Laws For the Bachelor of Laws component of a combined degree: Candidates must complete 144 credit points of Law units of study taken from the School of Law Undergraduate Table, comprising: (a) 102 credit points of compulsory units of study; and (b) 42 credit points of elective units of study, of which a maximum of 36 credit points are taken from Part 1 and a minimum of 6 credit points are taken from Part 2. (c) Students may apply to take up to a maximum of 24 credit points of advanced learning Master’s units of study as elective units of study. (i) Enrolment in Master’s units of study will be subject to availability and any unit pre-requisites or assumed knowledge, which may include relevant industry experience or prior specialist study. (ii) Enrolment in Master’s units is only permitted after a candidate has completed 96 credit points towards the Bachelor of Laws. (iii) Students may only enrol in Master’s units listed in the Bachelor of Laws Elective units of study Table. Engineering Honours Requirements (a) an EWAM of at least 65 immediately prior to the semester in which a thesis unit of study is first attempted; and (b) have an EIHWAM of at least 65 at the completion of the degree; and (c) complete the requirements within a time limit of 5 years for a single Bachelor of Engineering Honours degree or complete the requirements within a time limit of 6 years for a combined Bachelor of Engineering Honours combined degree. Candidates who satisfy the requirements for the Engineering degree, but who have not satisfied each of Clauses (a), (b) and (c), will qualify for the award of the Bachelor of Engineering degree (i.e. the PASS degree, awarded without Honours). Advanced units in Maths and Science Most units of study offered by the Science Faculty on the list of core requirements can be replaced by an equivalent advanced level unit; subject to prerequisite conditions (as required by the Faculty of Science) being met. Students considering doing advanced options should seek advice from their department before enrolling. Study Abroad Students undertaking Study Abroad in a particular year of their degree must enrol in the appropriate International Exchange Program units of study as an alternative to a semester`s standard units. Permission from the relevant Head of School must be sought prior to enrolling in exchange units of study.
