A selection of subjects in the four levels of the course in civil engineering from those not already completed. The selection is to include the required number of level-four elective subjects and must not exceed a maximum of fifty-two credit points.

Requirements for the degree of Bachelor of Engineering in chemical engineering

The student requires, in addition to a completed Bachelor of Science degree, a further ninety-eight credit points for the Bachelor of Engineering degree, in subjects prescribed by this subject list and selected from the course in chemical engineering in subject list I.

Requirements for the degree of Bachelor of Engineering in civil engineering

The student requires, in addition to the completed Bachelor of Science degree, not less than a further ninety-six credit points for the Bachelor of Engineering degree, in subjects prescribed by this subject list and selected from the course in civil engineering subject list I. The ninety-six credit points must include level-four elective subjects (minimum fifteen credit points) and an approved interfaculty subject in the humanities and social sciences (six credit points).
