Structure

Parts C and D. Environmental engineering knowledge, application and professional practice108 credit points
Part E. Elective study - Specialisation36 credit points
Electives must be completed at the unit level required to satisfy the course requirements. You must complete a total of 36 credit points of engineering elective study. 12 credit points must be at levels 2 or 3 and 24 credit points must be at levels 3 and 4 from the engineering technical electives list below. If you have completed two electives in Year 1 in a non-engineering minor in a discipline from another faculty that is approved by the Faculty of Engineering, you may want to use the 12 credit points at level 2 to complete the non-engineering minor, or choose from the environmental engineering technical electives list. You are encouraged to take up the opportunity to pursue a minor in an engineering discipline that complements your engineering specialisation.

Studying a double degree

The 36 credit points of specialisation engineering technical electives normally required in the single degree have been credited towards the double degree structure and therefore not a requirement in the double degree courses.

Notes

You must satisfy the continuous professional development required to complete the course. See ENG0001.
