Overview
Through this double degree program students can combine the concepts of mining engineering with mathematical and computer sciences. This mining program focuses on analysis and design and combines knowledge from geotechnical, environmental, structural and water engineering, geology, computing, mathematics and finance. All Engineering students will complete a common first year before branching out into their disciplines 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) (Mining)/ Bachelor of Mathematical and Computer Sciences is an AQF Level 08 qualification with a standard full-time duration of 5 years. This program is accredited by Engineers Australia and graduates of the program qualify for professional membership of Engineers Australia.
Conditions
Conditions of Enrolment
1. 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) (Mining) with Bachelor of Mathematical and Computer Sciences
There shall be a Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) (Mining) with Bachelor of Mathematical and Computer Sciences.
Qualification Requirements
To qualify for the double degree of Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) (Mining)/ Bachelor of Mathematical and Computer Sciences, 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:
- Courses to the value of 96 units, from the Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) (Mining), Core courses up to the value of at least 78 units and Elective courses up to a value of 18 units, with the option of a major in
- Mine Automation.
- Bachelor of Mathematical and Computer Sciences courses to the value of 24 units as specified to provide a double degree with a Mathematical Sciences Major only.
