Honours will be awarded to students who have achieved superior grades in courses over the whole program including the successful completion of a thesis at sufficient standard. Weighted average marks required for Honours grades are given below: The School of Computer Science and Engineering uses an internal method for calculating this average, the information provided by New South Student is not used for this purpose.

Honours Class 1: WA greater than or equal to 75

Honours Class 2: Division 1: WA equal to 70 up to and including 74

Divison 2: WA equal to 65 up to and including 69

1. In addition to the BE program, students must complete 60 units of credit in the BA program with no more than 24 units of credit obtained at Level 1 (i.e. courses designed for students in their first year of study). Of these 24 Level 1 units of credit, no more than 12 units of credit may be from any one sequence of study.

2. Students must complete a major sequence (42 units of credit) in one of the following areas:

*Students completing an Environmental Studies major sequence must complete, in addition to the 30 Upper Level units of credit specified, 6 level 1 units of credit in an approved course. Students must also complete a minor sequence of 24 units of credit on one of the other areas listed above.

3. Except for courses completed as part of the Environmental Studies major sequences, no more than 12 units of credit may be obtained from courses in the BA program which are offered by schools outside the Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences.

4. No course included for credit in the BE programs can be included in the 60 units of credit required at Rule 1 for the BA program.

5. Students must complete the full requirements of the program 3648 BE in Software Engineering except that they are exempt from the General Education requirement of the BE program. However, students will not be eligible for graduation for the BE until a minimum of 12 units of credit of the BA have been successfully completed.

Engineers Australia

The professional body for engineering in Australia is Engineers Australia, which has as its first objective the promotion of the science and practice of engineering in all its branches.

Engineers Australia has its national headquarters in Canberra and functions through a series of divisions, the local one being the Sydney Division. Within each division are branches representing the main interests within the profession, e.g. civil, mechanical, electrical, engineering management and environmental engineering.

Students of an approved school of engineering may join the Institution as a student member (StudIEAust). Student members receive the monthly publication Engineers Australia and for a small fee they also receive The Transactions which contains articles on a particular branch of engineering.

Student members are invited to participate in the Excellence Award for Work Experience, the National Young Engineer of the Year Award and to avail themselves of other Engineers Australia services including the Mentor Scheme and industrial experience guidance.

For more information and membership application forms, contact Engineers Australia, Sydney Division, Level 3, 8 Thomas Street, CHATSWOOD NSW 2067 - telephone 02 9410 5600 www.engineersaustralia.org.au

The Australian Computing Society

The peak professional body for computing in Australia is the Australian Computing Society (ACS) - www.acs.org.au

The objectives of the ACS can be found here and include: "advanc[ing] professional excellence in information and communications technology, and further[ing] the study, science and application of information and communications technology."
