Pathways for VET to Higher Education
Guaranteed credit transfer arrangements are available to students commencing a Bachelor degree at Charles Darwin University with completed Certificate IV, Diploma, Advanced Diploma or Associate Degree qualifications in the same field or discipline at Charles Darwin University. Students who hold completed qualifications should refer to the additional information provided by using one of the following links:
| For information about credit transfer available to students with complete or incomplete study at this or other Institutions refer to Pathways for Higher Education to Higher Education
|
|
| The course consists of 32 coursework units and two work experience units.
The first year of study introduces basic engineering skills common to all specialisations. In subsequent years students follow a study path specifically developed for their area of specialisation.
This course is available externally by distance learning for those who are not able to attend classes on campus on a regular basis. Access to the internet is required for distance learning, with access to high speed broadband highly recommended. Distance learning includes residential activity, which requires on campus attendance of one week per semester of full time study.
A pathway to specialise in Robotics (SATAC Code 214781) or Computer Systems (SATAC Code 214791) is also available through an arrangement with Flinders University, where the first two years of full time study are completed at Charles Darwin University and the last two years at Flinders University. |

| COURSE CHANGES and TRANSITION arrangements - 2009
Students enrolled in the Bachelor of Engineering prior to 2009 will note that the Course Structure above indicates a change to the core units. - ENG153 is no longer offered and has been recoded to SPH142 Applied Physics
ENG404 Management for Professionals is no longer offered. Student who have completed ENG404 do not have to complete the new Specialist Elective unit relevant to their chosen Specialisation: - ENG413 Integrated Civil Engineering Design (for Civil Engineering)
- ENG426 Renewable Energy (for Electrical and Electronics Engineering)
- ENG432 Dynamics of Engineering Systems (for Mechanical Engineering)
PMO201 is now listed under core units, this does not affect continuing students, as this unit was required within each Specialisations already prior to 2009.
The following units have undergone unit title changes: ENG325 Systems Modelling (from: Signals and Systems) ENG432 Dynamics of Engineering Systems (from: Engineering Vibrations)
COURSE CHANGES and TRANSITION arrangements - 2010 As of 2010 CUC106 and CUC107 will be the two Common Units students are required to complete in the Diploma, Advanced Diploma and Bachelor of Engineering, including combined Bachelor of Engineering courses.
Students enrolled in the Bachelor of Engineering prior to 2010 will note that the Course Structure above indicates some changes to units.
Students who have completed: - SPH142 will not be required to complete ENG154
- ENG328 in the Electrical and Electronics specialisation will not be required to complete ENG417
- Any of the current 300 level units changed to 400 level are not required to complete the related 400 level unit.

Students entering this course with advanced standing, wanting to study part time or wishing to vary their study plan due to work, personal, financial or other reasons should use the table as a guide to create an individual study plan.
When designing an individual study plan: ♦ ensure Common Units are completed in the first year of study; ♦ maintain the basic order in which units are to be attempted; and ♦ check the assumed knowledge for each unit as some 200 and 300 level units assume you have completed foundation unit/s in the subject area at a lower level. 200 level units have the unit code which includes a number starting with 200 i.e. PMO201. Study Plan 1
These Study Plans are suitable for students commencing in Semester 1, enrolling in a standard full time load and who have the required level of assumed knowledge in maths (e.g. equivalent to Year 12 Mathematical Studies).

ELECTIVE UNIT SELECTIONS Please see below for further detail on suggested elective units.
Study Plan 4These Study Plans are suitable for students commencing in Semester 2, enrolling in a standard full time load but DO NOT have the required level of assumed knowledge in maths (e.g. equivalent to Year 12 Mathematical Studies). Students following these study plans will utilise elective units to enrol for additional maths units in their first year of study.

The first semester of study is common to all specialisations with students selecting their specialisation in the second semester of study (calendar year 2).

ELECTIVE UNIT SELECTION Elective unit selections for 2011 will be updated and available prior to 1 October 2010.
It is recommended students select elective units from the following list of Specialist and Elective Engineering units offered by CDU not already completed as part of your specialist stream. Alternatively, students may select engineering electives offered externally by the Central Queensland University (CQU), Deakin University (Deakin), University of Southern Queensland (USQ) and University of Wollongong (UoW).
Note: SPH141 Concepts of Physics and SMA100 Introduction to Mathematics should only be taken as electives on advice of the course coordinator. Elective 3*: suggested elective units for those following Study Plan 4 and undertaking the Civil or Electrical and Electronics specialisation: LWZ100A, MAN101, MKT101, CIA102 and MUS110.
RECOMMENDED ENGINEERING ELECTIVES offered by CDU (still to be confirmed for 2010) Semester 1 |  | Semester 2 |  | | ENG412 Roads and Traffic Engineering | SE | ENG417 Environmental Awareness and Sustainability | SE | | ENG421 Digital Signal Processing | SE | ENG429 Biomedical Engineering | E | | ENG426 Renewable Energy | SE |  |  |
RECOMMENDED ENGINEERING ELECTIVES available via CROSS INSTITUTIONAL ENROLMENT in 2010
External units offered by other Australian Universities are available to CDU students in external form. Students will need a Cross Institutional Enrolment to undertake these units, for which application should be made directly to the University offering these units. Units from Central Queensland University (CQU), Deakin University (Deakin), University of Southern Queensland (USQ) and University of Wollongong (UoW) are listed below as approved external electives for CDU's Bachelor of Engineering program.
Note that these units are not offered by CDU and therefore CDU staff may be unable to provide any assistance with these units.
Important dates for enrolment of the Universities listed below may vary from CDU's dates. Please check with the relevant University dates for application, enrolment and teaching semester dates.
