Students may seek to undertake a five-year full-time dual degree program leading to the award of the degrees of Bachelor of Engineering (Telecommunications) and Bachelor of Science (BE BSc). The Faculty of Engineering administers the program, and delegates administration to the School which offers the Engineering discipline selected. Students should seek advice from the relevant School Office in the first instance, or from the Faculty of Engineering. All programs must be approved by both the Faculty of Engineering and the Faculty of Science. With this dual degree program, students take the 168 units of credit core of the Bachelor of Engineering in TelecommunicationsProgram3643 and the 96 units of credit core of the Bachelor of Science Program 3970. Because of the overlap of 24 units of credit of Science courses in both core, the total units of credit required for completion is 240 UOC, rather than 264 UOC (please see Academic Rules below for more details).

Contained in the University Handbook are typical program stuctures for each of the Schools within the Faculty of Engineering, and for the Faculty of Science. The programs may be varied by students according to the rules governing electives, pre- and co-requisites and progression within each program. Subject to pre- and co-requisites and progression rules, students may take courses at any time during the program; it is the responsibility of each student to ensure that the rules governing award of the degrees have been met and that the program of study in each session of enrolment is feasible with regards to progression and timetabling.
