Bachelor of Engineering for 2009

Course overview

The course offers students a common first year, enabling students to experience a range of engineering disciplines before deciding on a specialisation. Students study two core units in computing and mathematics and a series of engineering elective units in key disciplines including chemical, civil, electrical, materials and mechanical engineering. Subject to quotas and academic performance at first year, students then pursue studies in one of the following engineering disciplines: chemical engineering civil engineering electrical and computer systems engineering materials engineering mechanical engineering mechatronics (Malaysia only) Students complete the final three years in their chosen branch of engineering. During one or more of the long breaks, they are required to undertake 12 weeks practical experience in approved engineering work.
