Applicability of the general provisions

11.1.25.1 The general provisions in 11.1.1 apply to the course.

Course structure

11.1.25.2(1) The combined course for the degrees of Bachelor of Computer and Mathematical Sciences and Bachelor of Engineering consists of units to a total value of 240 to 252 points depending on the combination of majors taken for the Bachelor of Computer and Mathematical Sciences and allowing for units which are cross-credited between the courses and units referred to in (2).

(2) The Faculty of Engineering, Computing and Mathematics will accept certain units or groups of units completed in the Bachelor of Computer and Mathematical Sciences component as alternatives to or equivalents of units required for the Bachelor of Engineering component.¹

¹ For details of these units students should consult the Faculty of Engineering, Computing and Mathematics website and the Study Guide for this course.

Bachelor of Computer and Mathematical Sciences component

11.1.25.3 The Bachelor of Computer and Mathematical Sciences component consists of units to a total value of 102 to 108 points comprising—

(a) the requirements for two majors from those listed in (i) and (ii) under Faculty of Engineering, Computing and Mathematics Rule 6.2.3.3(1)(b), details of which are set out in 6.2.3 of that Faculty’s Rules;

and

(b) the units as set out in Faculty of Engineering, Computing and Mathematics Rule 6.2.3.3(4) except that—

(i) under Rule 6.2.3.3(4)(c) students must take only MATH1001 Mathematical Methods 1 and MATH1002 Mathematical Methods 2; and

(ii) under Rule 6.2.3.3(4)(e) students must take at least MATH2209 Calculus and Probability ¹ and MATH2020 Multivariable Calculus and Linear Algebra ¹.

¹ This unit is no longer offered. Students requiring this unit or its equivalent should refer to the ECM study guides.

Bachelor of Engineering component

11.1.25.4 The Bachelor of Engineering component consists of units to a total value of 168 points comprising—

(a) all foundation core units required under Rule 6.2.2A.6(1)(a) in the Faculty of Engineering, Computing and Mathematics Rules—36 points

and

(b)(i) all the units in Group A, one unit from Group B and three units from Group D in the core units for the Electrical and Electronic Engineering program as prescribed in Table 6.2.2Ea (Electrical and Electronic Engineering core units) in the Faculty of Engineering, Computing and Mathematics Rules—126 points

and

(ii) options to a total value of six points comprising one unit from Group A in Table 6.2.2Eb (Electrical and Electronic Engineering options);

and

(c) practical experience through a professional practicum as set out in Rules 6.2.2A.10 to 6.2.2A.13 in the Faculty of Engineering, Computing and Mathematics Rules (GENG4010 Professional Practicum¹).

¹ Students do not enrol in the Professional Practicum units. Upon successful completion, the appropriate unit will be added to their enrolment and the result released together with the results for the other enrolled units for the semester.

Award of Bachelor of Engineering with honours

11.1.25.5 The Faculty of Engineering, Computing and Mathematics may award the degree of Bachelor of Engineering with honours to a student who has completed the requirements of the Bachelor of Engineering course at a sufficiently high level.
