Comments

  • T he BE(Hons) requirements were easy for me to understand (after a little home work) mostly due to the highly structured (and prescribed at that) nature of this degree.
  • It has an interesting structure, with a clear set of core courses, but the Hons patterns seems atypical?
  • I have identified quite a bit of supplementary information for this degree and expect that in consultation we will identify even more.
  • Because of the structure we can resource the development of a visual representation of this degree for each of the three main majors.

 

Degree requirements

  • Total of 480 points required (typically 120 points/year), including:
    • At least 120 points from courses at 400 level and above listed for the BE(Hons).
  • Complete four core courses and other 100-level major-specific courses (usually in the first year):
    • Either COMP 102 or COMP 112
    • COMP 103
    • ENGR 101
    • ENGR 110.
  • Complete one core course and other 200-level major-specific courses (usually in the second year):
    • ENGR 291
  • Complete three core courses and other 300-level major-specific courses (usually in the third year):
    • ENGR 301
    • ENGR 302
    • ENGR 391.
  • Complete three core courses and other 400-level major-specific courses (usually in the fourth year):
    • ENGR 401
    • ENGR 489
    • ENGR 491.
  • Complete the requirements for at least one major subject (selected from the drop down list below).
    • 300 and 400-level courses may only be counted towards one major.
  • Entry to the second year requires at least a B average across all the required first year courses.
  • Complete three further approved courses listed for any Bachelors's or Honour's degree at this university
    • At least one course must be greater than 100-level.
  • Complete at least 800 hours employment or work experience in an approved engineering environment.

Supplementary information

  • Standard ones on UG degree requirements
  • Explain the breadth block.
  • "In additional to the admission requirements on . . ." and table (GUS, p.83).
  • "If you don't have the . . ." (GUS, p.83); or

  • If you haven’t got enough NCEA credits to meet the prerequisites of the mathematics or physics course you require, don’t worry – you can make up for this by taking a bridging course. However, you need to understand that this means your degree will almost certainly take longer.

    • Students without enough NCEA Mathematics credits will need to take MATH 132.

    • ECEN students without enough NCEA Physics credits will need take PHYS 122 before PHYS 115 and 114.

  • Approved courses:Three courses froming a coherent addition to the major and approved by the Dean.

Thoughts and questions

  • Need definition for the second instance of the word 'approved'
  • Is the B+ average across all required 100-level courses, whether core or for the major? What about the "breadth" block?
  • Can 300 and 400-level courses only count for one major?
  • What shall we do about the BE?
