(conversion course)<br />

The Bachelor <strong>of</strong> Applied Science (Computer Science)<br />

conversion program is available only for students who have<br />

completed an associate diploma which includes computer<br />

programming. It is <strong>of</strong>fered full-time over two years and<br />

comprises a full computer science major together with a minor<br />

sequence in another discipline. Two semesters <strong>of</strong> mathematics<br />

are compulsory for all students who have not passed an<br />

equivalent amount <strong>of</strong> mathematics beyond year 12.<br />

Graduates <strong>of</strong> the degree will have completed fou~years <strong>of</strong><br />

tertiary education in computing, and gained extensive<br />

knowledge <strong>of</strong> computer systems and s<strong>of</strong>tware development,<br />

together with well developed written and verbal<br />

communication skills. During the course, experience is gained<br />

in programming, systems analysis and design, and project<br />

management.<br />

Career potential<br />

Graduates will typically find initial employment as<br />

programmers or analysts, and have good prospects for rapid<br />

advancement to advanced technical or managerial positions.<br />

Full-time course (1994 syllabus)<br />

Minor sequences are <strong>of</strong>fered in applied mathematics,<br />

accounting, economics and organisational behaviourl<br />

marketing. Elective subjects <strong>of</strong>fered, however, will depend<br />

upon demand and available resources.<br />

To complete the program, students must pass subjects to the<br />

value <strong>of</strong> 200 credit points. At least 120 credit points must be in<br />

computer science subjects. There are no exemptions. Each<br />

full-time year <strong>of</strong> study normally comprises a selection <strong>of</strong><br />

subjects to the value <strong>of</strong> 100 credit points taken over two<br />

semesters. Most subjects are worth 10 credit points so that a<br />

standard program comprises five equally weighted subjects<br />

per semester However, subjects in mathematics vary between<br />

7.5, 10 and 12.5 credit points whereas business subjects are<br />

normally worth 12.5 credit points.<br />

A minor sequence in another discipline will normally consist <strong>of</strong><br />

a coherent sequence <strong>of</strong> subjects to the value <strong>of</strong> at least 40 but<br />

no more than 50 credit points. For example a business minor<br />

sequence will comprise four subjects each worth 12.5 credit<br />

points. An elective may be omitted in the final year if enough<br />

points are gained in the minor.<br />
