Bachelor of Computer Science - Bachelor of Science
To qualify for the award of the double degree of Bachelor
of Computer Science and Bachelor of Science by joint registration,
candidates must satisfactorily complete the subjects and credit
points as prescribed in the following Program, and in so doing,
satisfy the requirements of Course Rules 107 and 109 for the
Bachelor of Computer Science and the Bachelor of Science,
respectively.
Minimum Performance Requirement
Candidates must maintain a weighted average mark (WAM) of
at least 65 at the end of each year, otherwise they must show
cause as to why they should be permitted to remain registered
for the two courses.
Candidates who, at the end of any year of registration, have
satisfied the requirements of Course Rule 011, but who do
not have a WAM of at least 65 and who have not given adequate
reason as to why they should be permitted to continue with
registration for the joint course, will be required to transfer
into either a Bachelor of Computer Science or a Bachelor of
Science.
Major Study Areas
It is strongly recommended that students who are enrolled
in this degree and wish to major in Secure Distributed
Systems complete the core subjects as well as CSCI212,
CSCI214,
CSCI316
and CSCI322.
Students wishing to major in Software Development should
complete the core subjects as well as CSCI205,
CSCI235,
CSCI311
and CSCI325.
Honours
Candidates may apply, within normal procedures, to register
for either, or consecutively, both, the Bachelor of Computer
Science (Honours) or the Bachelor of Science (Honours) after
the satisfactory completion of the joint program.
The following program of study is recommended to satisfy the
requirements in minimum time.
