Credit entitlement is determined in the first instance by representatives of the various departments and ratified by a senior member of the academic staff on each campus. In each case, the appeals committee may be augmented, where appropriate, by a representative of a relevant engineering department or discipline group. Maximum credit allowed Irrespective of what study applicants may have undertaken prior to admission, or may be permitted to take during their course under cross-campus arrangements or under the 'permission to take work elsewhere' regulation, it is the policy of the faculty that a certain amount of work must be completed at Monash University. Students must complete at least 96 credit points in a particular undergraduate engineering degree program, and students in the three-year Bachelor of Technology programs must complete at least 72 credit points, in order to qualify for a degree from Monash University. While the Bachelor of Engineering program has been designed to enable greater mobility between campuses, some restrictions on enrolments at other campuses do apply.
Information is available from the faculty administration office on each campus.
There are two exceptions to the requirement for minimum work to be completed at Monash University. The first concerns applicants admitted to candidature for an engineering degree, on the basis of a professional qualification obtained in another engineering or non-engineering specialisation, under an approved 'conversion course' arrangement leading to the award of a second qualification. Many subjects required for completion of this program are available by distance education. Candidates taking distance education subjects should anticipate the need to attend a residential school at Churchill each teaching semester. The second exception relates to people who have completed the three-year Bachelor of Engineering Studies degree at Gippsland and who wish to convert to the Bachelor of Engineering at Gippsland.
