Program Description

Combined degree programs lead to the award of the Bachelor of Engineering in either Electrical Engineering or Telecommunications, combined with a Bachelor degree in Arts or Science (usually Computer Science, Mathematics or Physics). Students who are in the combined degrees program must maintain a credit average performance (i.e. 65% weighted average mark) in order to stay in the program.

These programs qualify candidates for the award of two degrees in five years of combined full-time study in which the requirements of the degrees have been merged.

All combined degree programs are administered by the School of Electrical Engineering and Telecommunications.

Program Objectives and Learning Outcomes

Please contact the School of Electrical Engineering and Telecommunications and the Faculty of Arts for information on the Program Objectives and Learning Outcomes.

Program Structure

Year 1

As for Program 3643

Year 2

Session 1

COMP2091 Computing 2 (6 UOC)
ELEC2031 Circuits and Systems (3 UOC)
ELEC2041 Microprocessors & Interfacing (6 UOC)
MATH2111 Higher Several Variable Calc (6 UOC)
MATH2859 Prob, Stats and Information (3 UOC)

Session 2

ELEC2032 Electronics and Systems (3 UOC)
MATH2620 Higher Complex Analysis (3 UOC)
TELE3018 Data Networks 1 (6 UOC)

Arts /Core/ Elective 6 UOC
Arts Elective 6 UOC

Note: The Elective/Core subject will be PHYS2999 for Science with a Physics major, COMP2011 or COMP2711 & COMP2041 for Computer Science, and is a free elective for either Science with a Mathematics major or Arts.

For Arts, or a Science Major other than Computer Science, COMP1021 can be moved to Session 2 to enable a Session 1 elective to be taken.

MATH2620 and MATH2111 may be taken at the ordinary level (MATH2520 and MATH2011).

COMP1011 and COMP1021 may be taken at the higher level (COMP1711 and COMP1721).

Year 3

Session 1

ELEC2042 Real Time Instrumentation (3 UOC)
ELEC3006 Electronics A (6 UOC)
PHYS2939 Physics 2 (Elec Engineering) (3 UOC)
TELE3013 Telecommunication Systems 1 (6 UOC)
TELE4352 Data Networks 2 (6 UOC)

Session 2

ELEC3004 Signal Processing & Transform (6 UOC)
ELEC3017 Electrical Engineering Design (6 UOC)
MATH2509 Linear Algebra for Engineers (3 UOC)
TELE3015 High Freq Electromagnetics (3 UOC)

Arts/Elective (6 UOC)

Year 4

Session 1

FOUR Year 3 Arts Electives (24 UOC)

Session 2

ELEC3041 Real Time Engineering (6 UOC)

THREE Year 3/4 Arts Electives (18 UOC)

Note: It will be possible to delay/advance electives by 1 or more sessions to enable as flexible a choice as possible, providing the structure of the program (i.e units of credit in each session) is maintained, and that ultimatley all required core and elective courses are taken.

Year 5

As for Year 4 of Program 3643.

Academic Rules

For Arts, in addition to the BE course, students must complete 60 units of credit offered by the Arts faculty, comprising a major sequence within Arts.

General Education is not required for a combined degree program, with the exception of the BE MBiomedE program.

A mathematics major is not normally permitted for the BA. The BE BSc combined degree is more appropriate for this.

There will be a testamur for each part of a combined degree program.

Testamurs for the BE BA, the BE BSc and the BE MBiomedE are awarded at a single graduation ceremony.
