COURSE INFORMATION

Disclaimer

This course information may be updated and amended immediately prior to semester. To ensure you have the correct outline, please check it again at the beginning of semester.

K03 Bachelor of Engineering (Computer Systems)/Bachelor of Computer Science

There is a growing demand in high-technology industries and research centres, especially in the areas of information technology and telecommunications, for engineers with knowledge and professional skills in project management, software development and relevant areas of engineering.  While specialising in the discipline areas of electronic systems, computer systems or communication systems engineering, the double degree programs broaden the overall knowledge of students in areas which are complementary to their technical skills.

All double degree courses require five years of study.

 
ADMISSION REQUIREMENTS

Satisfactory performance in WACE Mathematics 3C/3D or Mathematics: Specialist 3A/3B or 3C/3D, or equivalent.
WACE Physics 3A/3B, or equivalent is desirable.
Students who have completed a TAFE Diploma or its equivalent in an allied engineering field may be admitted to this course with advanced standing.

 
SPECIAL ADMISSION REQUIREMENTS

Note: Students who have not passed either:
- WACE Mathematics: Specialist 3C/3D, or equivalent; or
- WACE Physics 3A/3B, or equivalent
will be required to complete bridging units during the first year of their studies.
