Handbook

Students must complete only one of the below specialisations. The approved Major must be declared before enrolling in level II courses. (Students do not need to declare a Major in their first year as they are encouraged to try a variety of level 1 Science courses to enable them to select an appropriate Major before commencing level II courses).

It is not possible to complete a 'double major' in this Program: if you wish to attempt more than one Major you should consider Program 3970.

Students must take 24 UOC of the following courses.

Students must take 18 UOC of the following courses.

Students complete up to 18 UOC of the following courses.

Please Note: Students who do not undertake the Geography Major may also use:
- GEOS2241 Peak Carbon: Climate Change and Energy Policy (6 UOC)
- GEOS2641 Urban Environments (6 UOC)
- GEOS3921 Coastal Resource Management (6 UOC)
towards their Prescribed Electives.

Students can only count a course once as 6 UOC towards the 120 UOC: if a course is in both the compulsory course list and within an approved Major, then additional Prescribed Electives must be taken so that the compulsory courses, approved Major and Prescribed Electives totals 120 UOC.

A maximum of 72 UOC of Level 1 courses can be taken throughout the entire program, including any General Education or mainstream Level 1 course taken to fulfil either the General Education or the Free Elective requirement.

any level 1 course

You must complete at least one of the following Major specialisations (48 UOC).

You must complete at least one of the following Minor specialisations (36 UOC) or a second Major specialisation listed above (48 UOC).

The Mathematics for Engineers minor is only available in 3961 Engineering (Honours)/Arts and 3732 Engineering Science/Arts.

The Legal Studies minor is only available in 4053 Arts/Education (Secondary).

If you do not complete a second Major specialisation, you must complete 12 UOC of additional courses from the above Major or Minor specialisations, or from the following courses.
