Level 3 From level 3, the course is divided into
and 4 three streams: 1. Environmental process
engineering; 2. Water and land
management; 3. Transport and the built
environment. The student must choose
either one major or two minor elective
streams, taking core subjects at each
level as well as stream core and stream
elective subjects from their chosen
stream(s). Stream electives subjects are
divided into two groups, A and B. One
major stream comprises a minimum of 20
credit points from group A and a minimum
of 8 credit points from group B (total
32 credit points); two minor streams
comprise 12 credit points from group A
and 4 credit points from group B in each
of two elective streams (total 32 credit
points). Students' choice of electives
must be approved by the Environmental
Engineering Executive Committee.
