Course Content
Year 1 is common to all specialisations and is consists of six 12.5% weighted core engineering science and mathematics units and two 12.5% elective engineering design unit.
Year 2 is consists of eight 12.5% weighted units specified in the schedules for each specialisation. Some specialisations offer a limited choice. A work placement unit is included amongst the eight Year 2 units, and must be completed in order to meet the Engineers Australia Professional Engineer Stage 1 competency standard.
Year 3 is consists of two 25% weighted core project units. Students will also select four 12.5% units from the schedule relevant to their chosen specialisation.
