Bachelor of Engineering (Honours)(Mechanical and Sports)

The first two years of the Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) (Mechanical and Sports) are almost identical to the Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) (Mechanical), with strong emphasis on design and engineering science fundamentals.
This enables students to build a solid foundation and core skills and knowledge in mechanical engineering.
Studies include mathematics, physics and an introduction to the basic principles of design, stress analysis, thermodynamics, materials, fluid mechanics, physiology, anatomy, control and computer programming.
This is complemented by laboratory and project work.
In the third year, students develop a more complex understanding in these fields, in addition to aerodynamics, biomechanics, sports materials and exercise physiology.
This is coupled with a design project.
In the fourth year, students undertake more advanced courses in finite element analysis and computational fluid dynamics.
They also take courses in management.
The fundamental work of the previous years is integrated into a range of sports-related subjects.
The degree culminates in a research project that enables students to apply their knowledge to a real sports engineering project.
Students are required to complete 12 weeks of approved practical experience.
Academic Program Rules The Calendar is a comprehensive handbook of the University's academic program rules.

Some students may need to modify their enrolment based on previous study (e.
g.
students granted advanced standing/credit, students repeating previously failed courses).
ENGINEERING COMMUNICATION Unless exempted by the Faculty, all international students are required to take Engineering Communication.
At the commencement of study, the Faculty will advise which course is to be replaced by ENG 3003 Engineering Communication EAL.
EXTRA COURSE REQUIREMENT Students who have not taken SACE Stage 2 Specialist Mathematics (or equivalent) will be required to enrol in MATHS 1013 Mathematics IM in semester 1, followed by MATHS 1011 Mathematics IA in semester 2 with MATHS 1012 Mathematics IB in Summer School to complete the Mathematics requirements at Level 1.
The satisfactory completion of Mathematics IM is in addition to the requirements for the Bachelor of Engineering (Honours).
COURSE AVAILABILITY^Check the course planner for course availability noting the availability of all courses is conditional on the availability of staff and facilities.
