Program Objectives and Learning Outcomes

Program Structure

The program structure below gives one sequence of courses that fulfils the requirements of the degree. The timing of the general education courses and elective courses may be modified to optimize the student's choice of courses. Students will have the option of choosing up to 12 UOC of professional electives available in year 3 and 4 if first year electives are chosen to satisfy core Industrial Chemistry requirements shown in subsequent years. Suggestions for this option and other course sequences consistent with timetabling and availability can be found on the School website at http://www.ceic.unsw.edu.au/newprogram/3100/index.asp While some courses are given twice a year, many courses are given only once a year. In addition, courses may have prerequisites and exclusions. Thus students should plan their enrolments appropriately.

PLEASE NOTE:
  • The first program structure listed is the new flexible structure for students commencing in 2006 and onwards.

Further Requirement

Students are expected to possess a calculator having exponential capabilities, however, more advanced calculators and personal computers, will be found useful. In examinations, students may be required to use calculators supplied by the University, so that no student will have an unfair advantage over another. Further information may be obtained from the Head of School.

Students of both Chemical Engineering and Industrial Chemistry are advised to have a copy of Perry J H Ed. Chemical Engineers Handbook 6th Ed. McGraw-Hill. This book is used extensively for most courses and units. Certain courses and units do not have specified textbooks and in these cases reference books are used or printed notes supplied.

Industrial Experience Requirements
