Bachelor of Software Engineering with Honours

Course Code: 2770

Clayton Campus

Students entering level 4 should initially re-enrol in Fourth year pass level.

Students are invited in to the Honours version of the degree when they will be required to change their enrolment manually.

Entry is based upon a weighted average,
Core level 1 x 1/6,
Core Level 2 x 2/6,
Core Level 3 x 3/6
Less 10% for repeat (i.e. 10% of pass mark achieved).

In 2004 the course structure for 2770 will change:
* CSE3305 Formal Methods II will no longer be a core unit at Level 3.
* CSE4431 System Validation and Verification, Quality and Standard will be a core unit at Level 4 and will be offered in Semester 1.

Students presently enrolled in the course can choose to complete their course under the 2003 structure although the 2004 structure is highly recommended.

 

Fourth year (Honours)
CSE4002 Software Engineering Studio Project (12 points)
CSE4402 Software Engineering Honours Project (12 points)
CSE4333 Parallel Systems
CSE4431 System Validation and Verification, Quality and Standard
CSE3/4XXX Approved Computer Science Elective

HONOURS GRADES
Honours grades in BSE will normally be decided by the following cut-offs:
HI 80-100
HIIA 75-79
HIIB 70-74
HIII 65-69
Less than 65 - Honours grade not awarded i.e. student graduate with a straight Bachelor of Software Engineering. An Honours grade will only be returned for students with a grade over 65.

1. For research project (CSE4402) students:
1.1 Point weighted average of core subjects in years 3 and 4 with CSE4402 project double weighted.
1.2 CSE4402 must be within one grade of the formula average. Otherwise awarded top of grade below.

2. For student not taking CSE4402:
Scale the point weighted average of core subjects in years 3 and 4: mark = (ave -50) * 0.75 + 50
