1. School of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science

The School of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science has responsibility for three streams of the four-year Bachelor of Engineering degree: the electrical engineering stream, the computer engineering stream and the software engineering stream as detailed in Bachelor of Engineering (electrical, computer and software engineering) (BE)

Each of these streams of the BE can be combined with degrees in arts, commerce, law and science as detailed in Bachelor of Engineering (electrical, computer, software)(BE) combined courses.

The school also offers a three-year Bachelor of Computer Science degree which includes an optional fourth year leading to the degree BCS (Honours) as detailed in Bachelor of Computer Science (BCS).

The Bachelor of Computer Science degree is also available as a combined degree with mechanical engineering, BE/BCS (Mechatronics), see Bachelor of Engineering (Mechatronics)/Bachelor of Computer Science (BE/BCS) and in the BCS/LLB see Bachelor of Computer Science and Bachelor of Laws (BCS/LLB)

2. Bachelor of Engineering (electrical, computer and software engineering) (BE)

2.1. Introduction

The BE course in the School of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science offers three distinct streams of the BE degree: electrical engineering, computer engineering and software engineering. The three streams have most first year subjects in common, and with the appropriate selection of subjects it is possible to defer the choice of stream until the commencement of second year, and in some cases, until the middle of second year. Each of the three streams may be taken in the combined degrees BE/BA (with an arts major in any department in the Faculty of Arts); BE/BCom (with a commerce major in any department in the Faculty of Economics and Commerce); BE/LLB; and BSc/BE (with a major in any department in the Faculty of Science, with the majority of students undertaking a major in computer science, physics or mathematics, however students in the software engineering stream of the BE are not permitted to take a computer science major in the BSc). Computer science as a Science Faculty major may be combined with a BE in chemical, civil, environmental, mechanical or manufacturing through the BE/BSc degree program.

2.2. BE (electrical, computer or software engineering)

The recommended or standard course structures are listed below. When setting the timetable every effort will be made to avoid clashes between the times of classes associated with these sets of subjects. Students should be aware however, that if it proves to be impossible to achieve a timetable without clashes in these sets of subjects, the faculty reserves the right to modify course structures in order to eliminate the conflicts. Students will be advised during the enrolment period of the semester if the recommended courses need to be varied. Where the courses include elective subjects these should be chosen so that timetable clashes are avoided. In particular, students in combined degrees should plan their courses so that the subjects chosen in the other faculty do not clash with those recommended for the engineering component.

The subject 640-121Physics A (Advanced) or 640-141 Physics A is optional in the software engineering stream, and students not wishing to retain electrical engineering as a choice may replace it.

Computer engineering students are required to complete 431-325 Stochastic Signals and Systems (or alternatively 620-201 Probability) and 431-327 Communication Systems in their third year if they wish to take 400-level electrical engineering optional subjects in their fourth year of study. These subjects are prerequisites for many of the 400-level electrical engineering elective subjects.

Elective subjects may be used for additional electrical engineering or computer science subjects. However, at least 25 points of non-technical subjects must be completed during the degree.

Elective subjects may be taken from electrical engineering electives, 300-level and 400-level computer science subjects and subjects offered by other departments.

Computer Engineering students choosing the elective subjects are reminded they must include 25 points from management or non-technical subjects. The selection of elective subjects may be restricted by timetable and prerequisite requirements.

3. Bachelor of Computer Science (BCS)

The course aims to develop skilled computer scientists with the technical knowledge to develop well-designed and robust computer-based solutions to a range of problems in business and industry. Studies include computer science (including introduction to computer programming, algorithms and problem solving, software development) and mathematics. Electives may be chosen from a wide variety of other disciplines including digital electronics and information systems. Subjects in later years include artificial intelligence, software engineering, computer networks, operating systems, graphics and computer design.

Computer science graduates work in government, the manufacturing industry, the information industry, commerce and education. Some graduates spend their time on software development and systems support and remain in a mostly technical environment. Others move to a mixture of consulting and advice-giving roles which place more emphasis on talking to others about the use of the technology. In all types of work environments, whether with small companies or large, success in employment involves a mixture of technical expertise and strong communication skills. The knowledge and qualifications gained will enable you to work in any country.

The recommended or standard course structures are listed below. When setting the timetable every effort will be made to avoid clashes between the times of classes associated with these sets of subjects. Students should be aware however, that if it proves to be impossible to achieve a timetable without clashes in these sets of subjects, the faculty reserves the right to modify course structures in order to eliminate the conflicts. Students will be advised during the enrolment period of the semester if the recommended courses need to be varied. Where the courses include elective subjects these should be chosen so that timetable clashes are avoided. In particular, students in combined degrees should plan their courses so that the subjects chosen in the other faculty do not clash with those recommended for the engineering component.

3.1. Bachelor of Computer Science course structure

Students in the Bachelor of Computer Science are required to take the following subjects:

The subject 431-102 Digital Systems 1: Fundamentals may be taken in second year, swapping an additional elective into first year.
