Overview:	The Software Engineering stream of the Bachelor of Engineering (for students commencing in 2008 and later years). See Bachelor of Engineering (B-ENG)
Objectives:	See Bachelor of Engineering (B-ENG)
Structure & Available Subjects:	Completion of 400 points of study culminating in an advanced software engineering project in the final year. The structure of the Bachelor of Engineering degree requires completion of specific subjects as part of this stream. The majority of subjects have one or more prerequisites and therefore the sequence in which subjects are taken is very important. It is unlikely that prerequisite waivers will be granted for these engineering subjects and therefore students should take care to select subjects in one study period that satisfy prerequisites for subjects in later study periods.
Subject Options:	The following subjects are required for this stream of the Bachelor of Engineering. First Year (normally 100 points taken in Year 1) Subject Study Period Commencement: Credit Points: ENGR10004 Engineering Systems Design 1 Semester 1, Semester 2 12.50 INFO10001 Informatics 1: Data on the Web Semester 1, Semester 2 12.50 MAST10005 Calculus 1 Semester 1, Semester 2 12.50 ENGR10003 Engineering Systems Design 2 Not offered in 2011 12.50 INFO10002 Informatics 2: Programming on the Web Not offered in 2011 12.50 MAST10006 Calculus 2 Semester 1, Semester 2 12.50 Plus Two breadth subjects (i.e. 25.00 credit points total) N.B. Students who have completed VCE Specialist Mathematics (or equivalent) are exempt from MAST10005 Calculus 1 and should therefore enrol in MAST10006 Calculus 2 and MAST10007 Linear Algebra. Students with a high level of achievement in mathematics may enrol in both MAST10008 Accelerated Mathematics 1 and MAST10009 Accelerated Mathematics 2 instead of both MAST10006 Calculus 2 and MAST10007 Linear Algebra. Second Year (normally 100 points taken in Year 2) Subject Study Period Commencement: Credit Points: COMP20006 Programming the Machine Not offered in 2011 12.50 MAST10007 Linear Algebra Summer Term, Semester 1, Semester 2 12.50 SWEN20003 Object Oriented Software Development Not offered in 2011 12.50 COMP20003 Algorithms and Data Structures Not offered in 2011 12.50 COMP20004 Discrete Structures Not offered in 2011 12.50 Plus Two breadth subject (i.e. 25.00 credit points total) One science or engineering elective (i.e. 12.50 credit points total) N.B. Students who have completed VCE Specialist Mathematics (or equivalent) and completed either both MAST10006 Calculus 2 and MAST10007 Linear Algebra or both MAST10008 Accelerated Mathematics 1 and MAST10009 Accelerated Mathematics 2 in Year 1 can replace MAST10007 Linear Algebra in the table above with a science elective. A science elective is any subject available as science credit in the Bachelor of Science course (B-SCI). Refer to that course entry for a full list of subjects. Science electives may have prerequisites. An engineering elective is any subject offered by the Melbourne School of Engineering and requires the approval of the stream coordinator. A list of subjects on offer can be obtained by an 'Advanced Search' of this Handbook. Search for Faculty: 'Engineering'. Third Year (normally 100 points taken in Year 3) Subject Study Period Commencement: Credit Points: SWEN30006 Software Modelling and Design Not offered in 2011 12.50 SWEN90008 Software Processes and Management Not offered in 2011 12.50 SWEN30004 Software Engineering Project Not offered in 2011 12.50 SWEN90006 Software Engineering Methods Not offered in 2011 12.50 Plus three electives (CSSE Electives) selected from subjects offered by the Department of Computer Science and Software Engineering (i.e. 37.50 credit points total) Subject Study Period Commencement: Credit Points: COMP30020 Declarative Programming Not offered in 2011 12.50 COMP30019 Graphics and Interaction Not offered in 2011 12.50 COMP30017 Operating Systems and Network Services Not offered in 2011 12.50 COMP30021 Theoretical Computer Science Not offered in 2011 12.50 COMP30018 Knowledge Technologies Not offered in 2011 12.50 Plus one approved elective (i.e. 12.50 credit points total) N.B. An approved elective is a CSSE Elective or a CSSE Advanced Elective. Alternatively, any other subjects with the approval of the stream coordinator.
