Year 1

Autumn session

300027Engineering Computing
300963Engineering Physics
300964Introduction to Engineering Practice

Choose one of

300743Mathematics for Engineers Preliminary
200237Mathematics for Engineers 1

Note: All students are required to enrol in 300743 Mathematics for Engineers Preliminary first and undertake a readiness test at the beginning of their study.

This test will be conducted at the beginning of the first semester of enrolment and the result will determine whether a student will remain in 300743 Mathematics for Engineers Preliminary or be transferred by the School to 200237 Mathematics for Engineers 1.

The students who finish 300743 Mathematics for Engineers Preliminary will then use this unit as an elective.

Spring session

300021Electrical Fundamentals
300463Fundamentals of Mechanics

Choose one of

200237Mathematics for Engineers 1
200238Mathematics for Engineers 2

Note: Students who remained in 300743 Mathematics for Engineers Preliminary during the first semester will be required to complete 200237 Mathematics for Engineers 1 during second semester.

These students must then complete 200238 Mathematics for Engineers 2 during the Summer session.
