Level 3

At level 3, seven common core subjects are taken. Students must choose one of two alternative programs of major study. The first program comprises significant further study in the field identified in level 2 as the discipline major, supported by study in a minor field. The second program involves the development of a double major through the selection of a second major field: the two majors are then studied equally. Information engineering must be one of the fields selected, as either a discipline major, a minor or one of the double majors. Students are advised on their choice of program and on the selection of subjects, from those listed below, appropriate to the program chosen.
