Notes

1. Students should select topics that are consistent with the specialisation they are planning to select.
2. ENGR2703 Mechanical Practice Certificate is taught intensively outside of the normal teaching periods. Students must ensure that they are available for this topic.
3. Variations to these programs of study that are consistent with the specialisations may be agreed with the Course Coordinator. Acceptable variations include, for example, those consistent with one of Flinders University's Bachelor of Engineering awards.
4. Students entering with SACE Mathematics may, with the permission of the Course Coordinator, substitute another topic for MATH1701 Mathematics Fundamentals A. Students entering with SACE Physics may, with the permission of the Course Coordinator, substitute another topic for PHYS1701 Physics for the Modern World.
5. Where a student can demonstrate a good knowledge of Mathematics, with the permission of the Course Coordinator, MATH1702 Mathematics Fundamentals B may be replaced by DSGN1102 Design Communication.

Combined degrees

The Bachelor of Engineering Science may also be studied in a combined degree program with another Bachelor degree in the College of Science and Engineering where the combination meets the requirements of the credit transfer policy.

The minimum requirements for consideration for entry to all undergraduate courses are specified in detail in the University Entry Requirements. There are no prerequisites.

On completion of the award, students will be able to:

• competently use professional skills and knowledge in the systematic development of engineering system
• apply their skills and knowledge in a professionally responsible manner
• communicate effectively with other engineers and the wider global community using a wide range of communication technologies
• work professionally as an individual and in a team
• understand and describe the processes through which current knowledge was developed
• develop engineering solutions appropriate to the social, political, international, economic and environmental contexts in which they are applied
• engage in the process of continuing learning needed to retain the necessary level of professional skills and knowledge
