Program Description

Day to day administration of this program is conducted through the Computer Science and Engineering Student Office, to which enquiries should be directed.

The stages of the program are shown below. It should be noted that it is possible to adapt the program by moving courses, subject to prerequisite requirements. Approval should be obtained for changes.

Program Objectives and Learning Outcomes

Please contact the School of Computer Science and Engineering and the Faculty of Commerce and Economics for information on the Program Objectives and Learning Outcomes.

Year 2
And ONE of the following:

Year 3
And SE Electives 24 UOC

Stage 4

Faculty of Commerce & Economics Electives (48 UOC)


Stage 5
  1. Plus Software Engineering Electives (24 UOC)
  3. (At least 3 UOC of the Software Engineering electives must be chosen from INFS courses).

Please Note:
  1. The above staging of the program represents one possible sequence of courses. The staging of the courses may be modified, subject to prerequisites and timetabling. In particular, the FCE and SE electives may be redistributed.
  2. Further information regarding SE electives can be found at http://www.cse.unsw.edu.au/seng/SE-BCom-generic/index.html
The Bachelor of Engineering in Software Engineering Bachelor of Commerce combined program requires the following:
  • The higher courses, COMP1917 and COMP1927, may not be available.
  • COMP2711 and COMP2011 usually run in different semesters.
  • The 8 options (48 uoc) for stages 3 and 4 are chosen from a list that includes all third and fourth stage COMP, INFS courses and some MATH courses. See SE electives (http://www.cse.unsw.edu.au/SE-electives/).
  • SE electives are nominally 48 uoc, but because Project Management changed from 3uoc to 6uoc we have had to take 3uoc out of the SE electives. In practice it may not be easy to choose 45uoc of SE electives, so it may have to be 48uoc.
  • As set out in this staging, stage 2 will have one semester with 27uoc and stage 3 will have one semester of 21uoc. Standard 24uoc semesters can be achieved by moving MATH2859 to stage 3.
  • In order to meet the requirement for 96uoc of FCE content, the program must contain 24uoc of INFS courses. This will require some INFS courses to be taken as SE electives.
Students who are enrolled in a combined program are expected to maintain a Credit (65% or higher) average across courses taken from each of the composite programs. Students who fail to meet this condition will be counselled about their suitability to remain in the combined program.
The stages of a generic combined program are shown above. In general, it will be necessary to adapt the program by undertaking courses to meet the requirements of particular Commerce majors. This generic program accommodates 96 UOC of courses from FCE.
The BCom program should be approved by the Faculty of Commerce and Economics.
