code: 2146 Gippsland campus and distance education
This double-degree course aims to equip graduates for a computing career in a
scientific setting or a career in one of the sciences supported by
professional-level computing skills.
The course can normally be completed in four years of full-time study or eight years by distance education, with variation to suit individual circumstances. A total credit value of at least 192 points must be completed as follows.
Fifteen subjects with a total credit value of 96 points comprising one of the following majors:
Subjects
with a total credit value of at least 96 points drawn from Faculty of Science
subjects must include the following:
(a) Two discipline sequences (excluding computing) consisting of 12 + 18 +
18 = 48 points or 12 + 12 + 24 = 48 or 12 + 18 + 24 = 54 points in one
discipline area across levels 1, 2 and 3 respectively and 24 points in a second
discipline area, including at least 12 points from levels 2 and 3.
(b) Two core subjects: one of SCI1020, MTH1210/STA1010, MAT1085 at first
level and SCI2010 at second level.
(c) One subject from one of the following groups:
This subject is to be drawn from a different
group from those which include the two chosen science discipline sequences in
(a).
(d) Either the six-point subject MAT1077 (Discrete mathematics), which
provides core mathematics background for the system development or multimedia
technology majors, or the six-point subject MAT1097 (Quantitative analysis),
which provides core mathematics background for the business systems major.
Consult the BSc entry for details of available science discipline sequences.
