The Diploma presents students with units from the first year of the Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) or Bachelor of Engineering Science degrees.
The Diploma aims to produce students who are fully prepared for study beyond the first year of the Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) / Engineering Science degrees.
The Diploma, completed in a smaller, more supportive learning environment than usually found in first year undergraduate programs, is designed to develop students to have greater ability in self-directed study and have the self-esteem that comes from prior achievement in a tertiary environment.
