Curtin University
About
This major/stream is part of a larger course. Information is specific to the major/stream, please refer to the course for more information.
The Bachelor of Engineering Pre-Major prepares students for entry to the second year of any of the engineering disciplines. The pre-major units when taken in a whole meet the overall first year objectives.
Additional Course Expenses
Students may be expected to purchase a number of textbooks and other essential study materials. Students require Safety Boots to Australian Standard AS/NZS 2210 for practical activities.
Structure
Major/Stream Learning Outcomes
A graduate of this course can:
1. develop and apply fundamental theoretical and technical knowledge to identify and outline solutions to problems in an engineering discipline
2. develop foundational knowledge and emerging professional skills across engineering disciplines
3. apply discipline knowledge using realistic, practical and analytical approaches to problem-solving, design and research
4. communicate with a range of audiences using effective and appropriate written, oral and interpersonal skills
5. integrate technologies to plan and execute project work and/or a piece of research with some guidance
6. develop self-discipline, self-management skills, personal responsibility and the ability to set learning and achievement goals
7. work in teams with global, international and environmentally responsible perspectives
8. recognise the impact of cultural diversity in the implementation engineering works or projects
9. recognise leadership, professional behaviour and ethical practice in the context of engineering projects
