TAFE

Pathways exist between the Diploma of Technology (Computing) at Holmesglen or Chisholm TAFE and Monash's Bachelor of Technology (Computer Studies) and also between the Diploma of Built Environment at Holmesglen and Monash's Bachelor of Technology (Infrastructure - Design, Construction and Management). Students who complete one year of either of these TAFE courses or equivalent can apply to enter the second year of the relevant three-year technology degree.

University

Monash offers three single units in the areas of mathematics, chemistry and physics that provide a suitable preparation for engineering courses:

ENG1070 Foundation Chemistry

ENG1080 Foundation Physics

ENG1090 Foundation Mathematics

(this unit assumes knowledge equivalent to VCE Mathematical Methods).

These units are similar in content to the VCE units of Chemistry, Physics and Specialist Mathematics or their equivalents. Students undertaking similar units through other institutions should ensure their studies also satisfy the course prerequisites.

Background studies

Because of its specific prerequisite requirements in the areas of English, mathematics and at least one of chemistry or physics, the faculty believes that VCE provides the most suitable preparation for all applicants. However, it recognises the other pathways outlined here.

VCE prerequisites

Units 1 and 2 - General Mathematics or equivalent, and the successful completion of an Australian Year 12.

International Baccalaureate subject prerequisites

English and mathematics (any) at a minimum of grade four at standard level.

University entrance requirements

Minimum entrance requirements for admission to Monash University Australia.

Applications
