Units indexed by faculty Bachelor of Aerospace Engineering/Bachelor of ScienceCourse code: 3278 + Course abbreviation: BAeroEng/BSc + Total credit points required: 240 + 5 years full-time, 10 years part-time + Managing faculty: Engineering Study mode and course locationOn-campus (Clayton) Course descriptionThis program provides an opportunity to combine studies in science with a specialisation in the field of aerospace engineering. In the double-degree course structure, restrictions have been imposed in terms of prescribed units to ensure that students pursue studies that suitably equip them for the subsequent years in science and engineering. Course structureStudents must complete major and minor sequences towards the science component of this double degree. In order to pursue a particular sequence, students must take the necessary science prerequisites in their first year of study. For details of major and minor sequences in science disciplines, refer to the ‘Science areas of studies and sequences - Clayton’ in the Faculty of Science section of this handbook. Students should contact the appropriate science or engineering course adviser before enrolling in any stage of the double-degree program, to ensure that the program they wish to follow will satisfy prerequisites necessary for higher years. In some special cases, students may choose to overload at stages 2 or 3 if they have not completed all of the prerequisites for their chosen science major sequences. Course requirementsStudents must complete 240 points of units as listed below. The choice of either MTH1020 and MTH1030 or MTH1030 and MTH2010 in first year is determined by the level of preparation from VCE studies. See the Faculty of Science section of this handbook under ‘Mathematics’ for details of MTH1020 and MTH1030. Students in the double degree must complete either two major sequences in different science disciplines or a double major and a minor sequence in a different science discipline. Students may graduate with a Bachelor of Science, or apply for admission to an honours year in science, following the completion of an approved combination of at least 144 points of units, including all of the normal science requirements for that branch of the Bachelor of Science/Bachelor of Engineering, with at least 96 points of science units and no more than 48 points of level 1 science units. Should a student discontinue the double-degree program and seek to take out the Bachelor of Engineering, it will be necessary to complete all of the requirements of that single degree. The engineering component requires not less than 132 points that must be obtained in units prescribed by this course list and the science component requires at least 108 points. Stage 1
Stage 2
Stage 3
Stage 4
Stage 5
* Any sequence in science may be taken, provided the appropriate sequence requirements and prerequisites are completed. In some cases, students may elect to seek approval for an overloaded course of up to 12 points at stage 2 or 3 to enable these requirements to be completed in addition to the required science units at stage 2.
