This program extends over four years and students study full-time during the day for twenty-eight weeks of each year (excluding examination and recess periods).

The Director of Teaching and Learning, School of Chemical Sciences and Engineering, may approve various program patterns involving full-time or part-time study.

Note

Chemical Engineering is also available as a component of the combined degree programs
BE (Chem Eng)/BSc program 3042
BE (Chem Eng)/BA, program 3043
BE(Chem Eng)/BCom, program 3715
the concurrent program
the concurrent degree BE (Chem Eng)/MBiomedE, program 3048

The program structure below gives one sequence of courses that fulfils the requirements of the degree.However, many courses are offered only once per year and others have pre-requisites or exclusions which govern the order in which they can be taken. Both of these things can have a big impact on program structure if poor choices of course combinations are made. Students are strongly encouraged to consult the School website at http://www.chse.unsw.edu.au/future/undergraduate/degrees_index.html for advice on course sequences that are consistent with timetabling and availability.

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 chemical engineering requirements shown in subsequent years. It is the students responsibility to plan their enrolments appropriately.


PLEASE NOTE:

Plus choose 2 Electives from the Year 1 Elective List http://www.eng.unsw.edu.au/rules/elective.htm. Suggested elective for this program:

** May be replaced with Advance Thesis ( 12 Units ).

Plus General Education (3 UOC)

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.

Successful completion of the BE degree program is accepted by the Institution of Chemical Engineers, the Institution of Engineers, Australia, and Royal Australian Chemical Institute as sufficient academic qualification for corporate membership.
