BSEng Honours

The degree rules regarding BSEng honours are available from Study@ANU.

"The awarding of honours in software engineering is based on meritorious performance in the third and fourth year components of the program. The assessment of meritorious performance is based on the marks and grades obtained for all 3000-level and 4000-level courses that the student has undertaken. Students who qualify may be awarded a grade of first class honours; or second class honours, division A."

In determining what constitutes 'meritorious performance', we start by calculating the average mark for all of the 3000 and 4000 courses completed by each student. Students who have an average mark >=80 are considered for award of the grade of first class honours (H1). Student who have an average mark >=70 are considered for award of the grade of second class honours, division A (H2A). From this starting point, we consider each individual student in order to determine if their performance is sufficiently 'meritorious' for either grade.

Scholarships

BSEng students are eligable for the following scholarships. Please consider applying.

Frequently Asked Questions
  • How do I get an honours degree in software engineering?
    See the BSEng Honours topic above.

  • How do I satisfy the BSEng Engineering Law requirements?
    25 Feb 2009: Students who have completed COMP4211 (Engineering Law, 3CP), BUSN1101 (Introduction to Commercial Law, 6CP) or the combined COMP4500/Law course in 2008, have met the Law requirements of the BSEng program. These students are not required, nor are they permitted, to take ENGN4611 (Engineering Law, 6CP).

    All other students must complete ENGN4611 (Engineering Law, 6CP) to satisfy the law component of the BSEng program.

    ENGN4611 will next run in Second Semester 2009.

    From 2009, COMP4500 will NOT include a law component.
