PAPERS:
Most papers last one semester and are worth 15 points. You must complete 120 points each year (360 points for the entire degree). In each year you will study core (compulsory) papers, and select other papers from a range of options. Students must have at least 150 points at Level 6 or higher. Of these at least 75 points must be at Level 7 or higher.
In addition to successfully completing all the papers, you are also required to complete a minimum of 600 hours of planned supervised work placement prior to graduation. The aim of the work experience is to expose you to the engineering practices and management systems in the work environment.
Year one - 120 points in total
Your study will build the foundation of knowledge and skills required for electronic engineering.
