Alternative pathways for students who have completed HSC General and Mathematics 2Units

This applies to all students who did General MATH. It is also applies to students who did 2 unit MATH, who may or may not have tried the bridging course but have still been identified in week 1 or 2 as having great difficulty in MATH 1001,1002.

These students will be told to transfer to the MATH1011, MATH1015, MATH1003, MATH1014 path by the MATHS department. The content in this path should cover the basic engineering requirements of following year units including MATH2061 but they start with an assumption of a lower level of MATH background.

Students still need approval for this change from the year advisor only for the above units of study.

Last day to drop unit of study is 31 March.
