300 credit points
The Mechanical with Aerospace specialisation of the Master of Engineering consists of 300 points of study - 287.5 points core (including one selective) and 12.5 points elective subjects as detailed below.
Advanced standing will be awarded for equivalent subjects taken in prior study to applicants on the following basis:
Credit, Advanced Standing and Accelerated Entry Policy (MPF1293) https://policy.unimelb.edu.au/MPF1293
Subject Options
Total 300 points - 287.5 points core, including one selective (compulsory) and 12.5 points elective subjects from the list below. Students must complete all 300 points of subjects, including all core subjects, or have advanced standing or exemption.
The core and elective subjects are those listed below. The order of subjects below is one way of progressing through the course - students who meet subject requisites may tailor their individual study plan to take into account advanced standing and their study load. Students plan their study online and can seek further advice from Stop 1 on individual study plans.
