Enrolling in the Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) - Part I

It is important to know that enrolling is different depending on if you’re enrolling for the Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) as a single or conjoint degree. There is a section for both on this page.

When enrolling, we recommend that you:

• Enrol in your courses for both Semester One and Two to avoid missing out on a place in your preferred courses.
• Enrol in Semester One first, then enrol into Semester Two.
• Enrol as soon as you accept your offer of place to avoid missing out choosing a course time that best works for you.

Please note, you must complete all compulsory core Part I Engineering courses before progressing to Part II Engineering courses.

You can use this information if you’re enrolling into a Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) as a single degree.

This means that you’re only studying a Bachelor of Engineering (Honours).

If you’re enrolling into your Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) for the first time, you will enrol into your courses using Timetable Planner.

To ensure you meet the requirements for the Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) Part I, log in to your Student Services Online (SSO) account and visit My programme requirements.

For more information, see How to view your programme requirements.

You can also view the latest version of the Undergraduate Handbook at the Prospectuses and Guides page.

Otherwise, refer to the table below for your BE(Hons) Part I requirements for Semester One and Two.

If you’re enrolling in your Engineering courses through ‘By subject,’ please make sure you select the Engineering-specific streams. A stream means that the classes have been specifically set aside for students studying a Bachelor of Engineering (Honours).

For more information, please see How to enrol in a course.

A conjoint degree is when you are completing both a Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) and another undergraduate programme.

There are five conjoint degrees available where you can study a Bachelor of Engineering (Honours):

• Bachelor of Arts/Bachelor of Engineering (Honours)
  
• Bachelor of Commerce/Bachelor of Engineering (Honours)
• Bachelor of Design/Bachelor of Engineering (Honours)
• Bachelor of Engineering (Honours)Bachelor of Music
  
• Bachelor of Engineering (Honours)/Bachelor of Science

To find out more about Engineering conjoints and to view the conjoint planners, see Conjoint degrees.

Please note as an Engineering conjoint student, you are required to prioritise enrolment into the seven BE(Hons) core courses. We strongly advise that you enrol in no more than 60 points in Semester One to avoid overloading yourself.

You can also refer to the table below for your BE(Hons) Part I requirements as a conjoint student:
