(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 />
