These Program Rules should be read in conjunction with the University's policies (https://www.adelaide.edu.au/policies).

Overview

Through this double degree program students can combine the concepts of chemical engineering with mathematical and computer sciences. The chemical engineering program will provide students with a background in the physical sciences, chemical engineering core disciplines, integrated design skills and research training. All Engineering students will complete a common first year before branching out into their disciplines, majors and/or a choice of thematic minors. The mathematical and computer sciences program includes a range of mathematics, statistics and computer science courses.
The Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) (Chemical)/ Bachelor of Mathematical and Computer Sciences is an AQF Level 08 qualification with a standard full-time duration of 5 year. This program is accredited by Engineers Australia and graduates of the program qualify for professional membership of Engineers Australia and the Institute of Chemical Engineers (IChemE) (UK).

Conditions

Condition of enrolment
Interruption of program: Students must apply for permission from the Executive Dean or delegate before taking a Leave of Absence. Any extension of the leave without approval will result in the loss of place in the program but an application may be made to be re-admitted to the program subject to the admission procedures in place at the time.

Academic Program Rules for Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) (Chemical) with Bachelor of Mathematical and Computer Sciences

There shall be a Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) (Chemical) with Bachelor of Mathematical and Computer Sciences.

Qualification Requirements

To qualify for the double degree of Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) (Chemical)/ Bachelor of Mathematical and Computer Scince, the student must complete satisfactorily a program of study consisting of the following requirements with a combined total of not less than 120 units, comprising:

  1.  Courses to the value of 96 units from the Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) (Chemical), Core courses up to the value of at least 72 units and Elective courses of at least 3 units, with the option of a major in:
    • Minerals Processing
    • Pharmaceutical Engineering
    • Food and Beverage Engineering
  2. Bachelor of Mathematical and Computer Sciences courses to the value of 24 units as specified to provide a double degree with a major in either:
    • Computer Sciences, or
    • Mathematical Sciences
  3. A total of 8 weeks of approved engineering work placement is required. Students will need to enrol into the ENG 3100 Engineering Internship UG (0 units) course to complete this requirement.  
  4.  Unless exempted, International students are required to take ENG 1011 Introduction to Engineering EAL in lieu of ENG 1001 Introduction to Engineering.
  5.  Students who have not undertaken SACE Stage 2 Specialist Mathematics (or equivalent) will be required to enroll in Mathematics IM, followed by Mathematics IA with Mathematics IB taken in Summer Semester to complete the Mathematics requirements at Level I. The satisfactory completion of Mathematics IM is in addition to the normal requirements of the Bachelor of Engineering (Honours).

The Pharmaceutical Engineering Major offered in this program is unable to be combined with a second Degree of Computer Sciences.
