Residential schools
Students are required to undertake practical and professional activities relevant to their program through
enrolment in a series of Practice courses in the program. Practice courses are zero unit courses that may be
undertaken in either on-campus or external mode and the final grades available are Pass (P)/Fail (F) only.
They are a compulsory part of the program and do not attract a student contribution charge for Australian
residents or a tuition fee for international students. The recommended enrolment schedule for Practice courses
is shown in the Recommended Enrolment Pattern for the program in this Handbook.
External students must attend a number of residential schools during their program to obtain experience in
practical and professional activities appropriate to the program. The residential schools are included in Practice
courses which are conducted in Semester 3 or during the recess periods. The dates for each residential school
Practice course are shown in the Residential School schedule in this Handbook and external students should
ensure they are able to attend the residential school prior to enrolling in a Practice course. Personal protective
equipment is compulsory in many engineering, construction and spatial science laboratories, students should
confirm the requirements before attending residential schools for Practice courses.
Students who enrol in on-campus mode for Practice courses normally undertake a series of weekly activities
and/or attend a compulsory residential school.
ENG3902 Professional Practice 1 is to be studied in the student's penultimate year. Upon completion of
ENG3902 Professional Practice 1, students must study ENG8411 Masters Dissertation B and ENG8412
Masters Dissertation C and ENG4903 Professional Practice 2 in the same academic year.
Exit points
Students who have completed four courses in the program may satisfy the requirements for the Graduate
Certificate of Engineering Science and therefore may apply to exit the program with a Graduate Certificate
of Engineering Science or Graduate Certificate of Engineering Technology.
Students who have completed eight courses in the program may satisfy the requirements for the Graduate
Diploma of Engineering Science and therefore may apply to exit the program with a Graduate Diploma of
Engineering Science.
Credit
Exemptions/credit will be assessed based on the USQ Credit and Exemption Procedure.
Enrolment
Students should note that some of the courses specify enrolment requirements (prerequisites). Students should
therefore refer to the Course Specification section of the USQ Web to determine the enrolment requirements
for the courses they intend enrolling in. Students should avoid enrolling in courses for which they do not have
sufficient pre-requisite knowledge. Students will be expected to rectify any deficiencies in their pre-requisite
knowledge by private study, guided if necessary by the examiners of the relevant courses. Students should
contact Faculty Administration if they encounter problems while enrolling in courses with requisites.
Students wishing to undertake a six credit point research project need to obtain the approval of the Faculty of
Health, Engineering and Sciences prior to enrolling in either ENG8412 or ENG8002.
