Resolutions of the Faculty of Engineering and IT relating to the combined Civil Engineering/Design in Architecture program.

1. Candidates for the degrees of Bachelor of Engineering in Civil Engineering and Bachelor of Design in Architecture must complete all the core units of the study as listed in the above table and complete a minimum of 240 credit points.
2. Most Mathematics, Chemistry, Physics and Computer Science units of study offered by the Faculty of Science can be replaced by an equivalent advanced level units of study subject to prerequisite conditions (as required by the Faculty of Science) being met.
4. Students considering doing Advanced Engineering options should seek advice from the relevant school adviser before enrolling.
