~oso Bachelor of Engineering
(Mechanical)
Bachelor of Engineering courses are currently under
review.
The course is being introduced progressively and details of
Years 3,4 and 5 will appear in the 1997 Handbook. For
further information contact the relevant School.
Bachelor of Engineering
(1 996 syllabus course)
Students entering the first year of the mechanical
engineering course will be enrolled in the common first
year, and will follow the Bachelor of Engineering
(Mechanical) 1995 syllabus.
Courses are arranged to allow flexibility so that any student
may transfer from full-time to part-time studies or viceversa,
at particular points of a course, without loss of credit
for subjects passed.
This program will extend over eight academic semesters plus
two semesters of industry based learning.
The degree course program combines a thorough education
in the application of engineering science principles with a
broad span of studies important to a professional engineer.
Bachelor of Engineering
(1 990 syllabus)
Students currently enrolled in Years 3,4 & 5
Streaming in later years of the course is offered through a
system of technical elective subjects which allows students
to select a particular emphasis for their four and a half years'
plus the industry based learning (cooperative) program.
