Course Content
Students are required to complete 198 credit points, comprising:
- core program: 48 credit points
- major (field of practice), including capstone: 120 credit points
- electives (see note): 24 credit points
- professional practice program: 6 credit points, plus 12 weeks of industry experience.
Note: Students in the Civil and Environmental Engineering, Electrical and Electronic Engineering, and Mechanical and Mechatronic Engineering majors are required to select the specialist stream in their major in place of the electives.
The major is selected at the time of application to the course; however, it is possible to apply to change major at a later date. Students admitted to the Flexible major should decide by the end of the first year of full-time study whether to transfer to a designated major or continue with the flexible program.
