Introduction
Designed to provide graduates with a broad range of analytical and mathematical skills with particular relevance to statistical modelling and operations research. Prepares students to organise and control marketing activities in a highly competitive and volatile environment enhancing their employment prospects in the technological, industrial and commercial sectors.
Course Entry Requirements/Prerequisites
Applicable Mathematics or Calculus. If Calculus is not studied, a bridging unit may be required.
Specific Requirements
The STAT is not accepted for entry to this course.
Note
Students will normally be expected to have attained a higher Tertiary Entrance Rank than is required for both single degrees.
Recognition of Prior Learning
Applications for recognition of prior learning are assessed on an individual basis.
Duration and Availability
This course is four years full-time or equivalent part-time study. Two intakes are offered each year, in March and August. Prospective students should note that places may not always be available for the August intake.
Course Organisation
Students enrolled in the double degree program may elect to transfer to a single degree course in one of the two disciplines. In this event the relevant Head of School or Department shall determine the amount of credit to be transferred to the single degree. The structure of Engineering, Science and Computing owned double degrees is such that students have the option of completing the component Engineering, Science or Computing degree in the minimum time, provided they elect to change from the double degree within the first two semesters of the course.
Professional Recognition
Graduates of the course are eligible for membership of the Australian Mathematical Society, Australian Marketing Institute and Australian Institute of Management.
Additional Course Expenses
Students may be expected to purchase a number of textbooks, readers and other vital study materials.
