Course requirements

Students whose first enrolment in the BSc/BE is in 1999

The structure of the five-year Bachelor of Science/Bachelor of Engineering is currently being revised so that students entering from 1999 will qualify for the BSc degree after four years of study, and for the BE after the fifth year of study.
The course requirements for students will be set out in a faculty enrolment guide which will be provided to all students prior to enrolment in 1999.

Students whose first enrolment in the BSc/BE is prior to 1999

The five-year double degree course qualifies students for the BSc degree after three years of study and, after a further two years, for the degree of Bachelor of Engineering.
In the first three years of study students' progress will be subject to Science faculty policies and rules, including examinations.
The fourth and fifth years of the course will be pursued entirely within, and under the control of, the Engineering faculty.
Students wishing to qualify with a BSc(Hons) may take the honours year before proceeding to their final two years in the Engineering faculty.
Students embarking on this course pursue combinations of subjects from both faculties. The course is structured so that progression to the BSc qualification, ie the first three years, is governed by the BSc regulations, except that restrictions in terms of subject choices have been imposed to ensure that only those studies which equip students to undertake the subsequent engineering studies can be pursued.
All students should see the double degree engineering course adviser at the end of each year in order to finalise their engineering enrolment for the following year.
For all students commencing in 1999, please refer to the 1999 enrolment guide.

Computer science major: All students

All students should note that if they are pursuing a computer science major they may not enrol in ENG1602.

BSc/BE in chemical engineering

Stage 2
Stage 3

BSc/BE in materials engineering

Students are required to take the full course of materials science subjects (MSC2011, MSC2022, MSC3011, MSC3022), which gives them exemption from most of the second level of the materials engineering course, and some of third level.
The remaining subject choice is only subject to the restrictions outlined below, but students may for example, major in chemistry, physics or physiology, where their final engineering year could concentrate on biomaterials.

BSc/BE in mechanical engineering

Students are advised to take, in mathematics and physics subjects, any optional units in fluid mechanics or dynamics, thermodynamics, computing, materials science, electricity and magnetism, and mechanics or dynamics. Students in sequences other than the physics, physiology or anatomy sequences should take the subjects MEC2410 or MEC2414, MEC2420, MEC2450 and MEC2470 in addition to their BSc studies during the second and third years in preparation for the third level BE studies. Students should also consult with the double degree adviser for mechanical engineering for further advice. The objective is to minimise the need to take second-year engineering subjects at stage four and to take full fourth-year mechanical engineering at stage five of the double degree.
