About this degree

• Typically students will enrol in 24 units per semester. This is four, six unit courses per semester. There are some variations in your later years with double weighted (12 unit) courses.
• A major is typically 48 units of courses and a minor is 24 units. You will need to complete at least one Engineering major in your degree. Engineering has more compulsory courses than many other degrees due to its professional requirements.
• In the single degree you will have 36 units (six courses) of university electives. You may use these to do additional engineering courses including an engineering minor or you may choose to take other courses of general interest.  You should note that you can only do a maximum of 60 units of 1000 level courses.
• In the double degree, you have no electives - your other degree requirements use up all of these.

Enrolment Status

While it's possible to enrol in fewer courses per semester, which is called studying part-time, it will take you longer to finish your program and get your degree. If you are an international student you must always be full-time.

Important things to keep in mind when choosing your 1000-level courses

• IF YOU ARE COMMENCING IN JULY YOU SHOULD SEND AN EMAIL TO <studentadmin.cecs@anu.edu.au> FOR ADVICE ABOUT YOUR ENROLMENT OR YOU SHOULD ATTEND AN ENROLMENT ADVICE SESSION AT THE UNIVERSITY IN THE WEEK BEFORE SEMESTER COMMENCES.
• 
  
• If you studied ACT Maths Methods, or are not confident in your Maths ability, please please FOLLOW THE ADVICE HERE
  

• Students who excel in maths and have done the highest level of maths available to them at school should read the following: You may choose to enrol in MATH1115 and MATH1116 (honours maths) in place of MATH1013 and MATH1014. There is no particular advantage to doing this, and there is additional workload, but students who are passionate and talented may like to choose this option.
  

• Students who have not taken Physics in Year 11 and 12 should read the following: If you have ­not undertaken Physics in Year 11 and 12, you should enrol in PHYS1001 Foundations in Physics in place of PHYS1101 Advanced Physics. You will not need to complete PHYS1101. :

• You need to enrol in courses for both First Semester and Second Semester.
• You can’t study more than four courses (24 units) per semester, eight for the year.
• Remember you can’t count more than ten 1000-level courses (60 units) towards your single degree or six 1000-level courses (36 units) towards the Engineering half of the double degree.
