Bachelor of Engineering - Bachelor of Mathematics
The School of Electrical, Computer and Telecommunications Engineering,
in conjunction with the School of Mathematics and Applied Statistics,
offers a double degree course leading to the Bachelor of Engineering
- Bachelor of Mathematics in the following major study areas:
The program, which may be completed in five years of full-time
study, offers the opportunity for students to include additional
mathematics or statistics with their studies in computer, electrical
or telecommunications engineering. It is likely to be of particular
interest to those students who wish to undertake a career in research.
The BE degree with Honours is awarded for meritorious performance
over the course and particularly in the final year thesis subject.
The classes of honours awarded are defined in the Course Rules.
With the approval of the Head of the School of Electrical, Computer
and Telecommunications Engineering and the Head of the School of
Mathematics and Applied Statistics, students who have completed
the recommended first year program of the Bachelor of Engineering
(Computer Engineering or Electrical Engineering or Telecommunications
Engineering) course and who have gained a weighted average mark
of 67.5% or better may transfer to the BE,BMath. It is a requirement
of the BE,BMath that all students enrolled maintain this level of
achievement throughout the course or they will be transferred to
the BE Course.
All BE,BMath students must sit for and perform satisfactorily in
an English Literacy Test organised by the School in association
with the Student Learning Development Centre. The test will be held
during the first session of a student's enrolment at the University.
It is a requirement of the BE degree that the student perform satisfactorily
in at least one such test prior to enrolment in ECTE457 Thesis.
Students who are deemed to require tuition in literacy in order
to complete this requirement will be advised accordingly and will
be required to repeat the literacy test the following year. Enrolment
in and attendance at literacy courses will be the individual responsibility
of the students concerned.
As indicated in the individual subject pre-requisites, students
are required to complete satisfactorily the recommended first year
before beginning the recommended third year and to complete satisfactorily
the recommended second year before beginning the recommended fifth
year. With the approval of the Head of the School of Electrical,
Computer and Telecommunications Engineering, these requirements
may be waived.
The choice of Mathematics or Statistics subjects will be constrained
by the requirements for a BMath degree as set out in the Course
Rules and is subject to the approval of the Head of the School of
Electrical, Computer and Telecommunications Engineering and the
Head of the School of Mathematics and Applied Statistics.
Professional Experience
All BE,BMath students must accumulate at least 12 weeks of approved
professional experience, documented in the form of employment reports
and preferably in the period between fourth and fifth years.
