A Message from the Dean
On behalf of the staff of the Faculty of Engineering,l wish to extend a very warm welcome
to all students - those who are entering the University and the Faculty for the first time
and those who are returning to commence another year of studies.
Having chosen to study in one of the fields of Engineering, in Surveying or Metallurgy, we
believe you are embarking on a professional career which is both challenging and
stimulating. It is clear we are living in a technological age - an age which has seen a
tremendous burst of scientific and technological development and which has had a
marked effect on the modes and characteristics of our society. It is also clear that the
future of our society is very much dependent on the solution of a number of very complex
technological problems, notably those associated with the alternative forms of energy and
with food production. Graduates in the various professions of Engineering, Surveying
and Metallurgy will, in their own way, be required to contribute to the solution of these
problems.
With these objectives in mind, the Faculty of Engineering has continued to up-date course
material to meet the current and future standards of the professions and the needs of
society. To ensure that this is done effectively, it is essential to maintain a stimulating
learning environment. teaching and assessment methods. While the various courses
provide the essential depth of study in the principal technical fields. we believe it to be of
major importance that students gain some breadth in their educational experience. For
this reason each degree programme contains a component of supporting studies in which
students are encouraged to take subjects in other faculties. The rationale for this is
obvious. While the role of the professional Engineer, Surveyor or Metallurgist may be
seen as providing technical solutions to technical problems, he or she must also be acutely
aware of the social implications of the decisions being made. The inter-relation of the
professions and society is one of growing importance.
The opportunity to obtain a well-rounded tertiary educational experience is embodied in
the very concept of the University system. The University environment, with its excellent
campus and facilities, together with the many extra-curricula activities, creates an
opportunity for obtaining a total experience, indeed a unique experience, in one's lifetime.
For this reason I would encourage you to take full advantage of the opportunities
available to you and, where time permits, take an active interest in the various facets of
University life.
The Staff of the Faculty will do everything possible to make your work both interesting
and enjoyable and will be anxious to help you with any problems you may have. I
personally would be most happy to assist you in any way I can, and would be grateful for
any feedback of a constructive nature that you may wish to offer.
In conclusion, I wish you well in your studies at this University. There is no doubt that a
course of study leading to an Engineering, Surveying or Metallurgy degree requires a
great deal of dedication and perseverance, but the task is certainly a rewarding one.
A. W. Roberts,
Dean. Faculty of Engineering.

2. UNDERGRADUATE COURSES
OFFERED
Each Department within the Faculty of
Engineering is responsible for the offering
of c ? u ~ s ~ s leading to degrees in particular
specialIties as well as the offering of service
subjects for courses leading to degrees in
other specialities.
(i) DEPARTMENT OF CHEMICAL
ENGINEERING
The Department of Chemical Engineering
is responsible for teaching courses in the
speciality of Chemical Engineering.
Chemical Engineering is concerned with
processes in which materials in bulk
undergo changes - physical. or chemical,
or both.
Industries employing chemical engineers
include the traditional chemical or
"process" industries, involved in the
production of organic chemicals,
fertilisers, foodstuffs, pharmaceuticals,
petroleum and petro-<:hemicals. Chemical
engineers are also employed in the
minerals processing industries, which
convert raw ore, which may contain very
small amounts of valuable material, into
concentrates; and also in the metallurgical
industries, which take these concentrates
and turn them into metals and oxides.
Chemical engineers are actively involved
also in the abatement of pollution, and in
combustion of gaseous, liquid and solid
fuels. They are in the forefront of renewed
efforts to find replacements for the world's
oil reserves, now rapidly running out, and
are heavily engaged in research on making
oil from coal or shale; on the production of
ethanol from sugar, grain and root crops
and many other projects to make more
efficient use of existing fuel and chemical
feedstocks, and to find economical
replacements.
On graduation, the majority of chemical
engineers find employment with industry,
public utilities, or the public service,
engaged in design and construction,
planning of new projects, plant operation,
and research and development, all of
which may lead on to higher management
positions. Career opportunities can take a
chemical engineer right tothe top of a large
industrial concern.
The study of chemical engineering is based
on a firm foundation of chemistry,
mathematics and physics, which feature
heavily in the early years of the Course.
Professional subjects are introduced
especially in years III and IV.
The basic course offered in the
Department of Chemical Engineering is
the Bachelor of Engineering in the
speciality of Chemical Engineering. This
may be taken as a four-year full-time
13
/
course, or by part-time study. A course of
two years part-time followed by three years
full-time is an excellent pattern. Students
are strongly advised to take the final year
full-time.
In the third and fourth years. students take
a number of elective topics in which they
may choose freely from professional and
non-professional subjects offered by other
departments in the university. Also, a
structured Option in ProC'eSS Metallurgy is
available in which a student may take a
number of courses offered by the
Department of Metallurgy, especially
designed to give a strong background in
theory and practice of process metallurgy,
without materially affecting the number of
chemical engineering topics taken by the
student.
The degree course is recognised for the full
academic requirements for corporate
membership of The Institution of
Engineers. Australia, and the Institution of
Chemical Engineers (Great Britain). It is
also recognised by the Royal Australian
Chemical Institute. and the Australian
Institute of Energy.
Degree Regulations and course
programmes for the above degrees and
options are set out in Section 3 of this
handbook.
In addition to these degree courses,
combined courses leading to the degree
B.E. in the Chemical Engineering
speciality and the degree of B.A., B.Com.,
B.Ec.. B.Math. or B.Sc. have been
approved. The approved combined course
programmes are set out in Section 5 of this
Handbook.
(ii) DEPARTMENT OF CIVIL
ENGINEERING AND
SURVEYING
The Department of Civil Engineering and
Surveying is responsible for teaching
courses in the specialities of Civil
Engineering and Surveying.
The Civil Engineering course also forms
part of a combined course in Resource
Engineering offered under a co-operative
arrangement between the University of
Newcastle and the University of New
England. In addition students who have
completed the first two years of the Civil
Engineering course may be admitted to the
third year of the Mining Engineering
course at the University of New South
Wales.
Civil Engineering is the application of
science to the improvement of the
community's environment. It is concerned
with the design and construction of water
supply and conservation projects. ~ y d r o
electric development. roads. railways,
bridges and tunnels, large buildings.
irrigation. sewerage and harbour and river
development. The Civil Engineer "adapts
the forces of nature for the use and
convenience of mankind." His academic
training includes the study of science and
engineering practice. He must combine
this with experience and judgement. and
the knowledge and personality necessary
to control large organisations of workers.
This profession offers to a young person a
considerable variety of types of work
ranging from specialised research and
investigations, through routine design and
construction work to higher positions
which are largely managerial and
organisational in their nature.
Surveying entails the measurement of
lengths. angles and heights on the earth's
surface and thus a land surveyor is an
expert in such measurements. The land
surveyor's claim to professional status,
however, lies in his ability to use and
interpret the results of his, or others'.
measurements of these quantities. The
work of surveyors may be divided into
several categories. such as Cadastral
Surveying, Engineering Surveying,
Topographical Surveying. Geodetic
Surveying, and Hydrographic Surveying.
There is also a current trend which may
lead to the surveyor coming to be regarded
as an expert in all aspects of land use and
management. Modern technology plays a
large part in the life of the twentieth
century surveyor. He may be required to
use very sophisticated electronic
equipment for precise distance
measurement, programmable electronic
desk computers or precision plotting
machines interfaced with electronic
computers. As well as being trained to
handle such equipment. and the
conventional surveying instruments such
as theodolites, levels, tapes. etc., he must
be educated in such a way as to ensure that
he is not left behind in the inevitable
advance of surveying technology during
his working lifetime.
This implies that his education should
include a good grounding in mathematics
and physics, the sciences which form the
14
basis of technology. However. his
education must be far broader than this. as
he must be able to apply existing and new
techniques to the various fields of
surveying which were mentioned earlier.
This requires an understanding of the
requirements of each of these fields, and a
study of a number of special disciplines
which are involved in supplying these
requirements e.g. study of land law. town
planning. land use. economics etc. is
essential to the correct development of
land for society's needs; while the study of
specialised branches of mathematics may
be needed for an understanding of geodetic
surveying and mapping.
In order to work in a full professional
capacity in the field of Cadastral or
Property Surveying. it is necessary to
become a Registered Surveyor under the
Surveyors Act, 1929, as amended. Before
applying for registration a surveyor is
required to graduate from a University.
Institute of Technology or a College of
Advanced Education in Surveying. In New
South Wales only two such courses are
available. These are offered by the
University of New South Wales and this
University. A surveying graduate is
required to serve two years under articles
to a Registered Surveyor engaged
primarily on land boundary surveys. An
exemption of up to six months may be
granted in respect of non-continuous
training and experience gained during
vacation periods, provided it is gained
under a Registered Surveyor engaged in
land boundary definition during that
period. The surveyor must provide a
certificate satisfactory to the Board of
Surveyors of New South Wales. A further
non-continuous period of up to six months
may be served under articles during
vacations, i.e. the student must become
articled to each surveyor for whom he
works, and the articles must be registered
with the Board. The Board of Surveyors
administers the Surveyors Act of 1929. Its
executive officer is known as the Registrar,
and enquiries regarding any aspect of
registration should be directed to him. The
remaining period of articles. being not less
than one year, is taken after completion of
the degree by full-time students. After
completing the necessary period under
articles candidates for registration are
required to complete the Board's
examination.
Mining Engineering covers all phases of
the recovery of minerals and rocks from
the earth. The mining engineer determines
whether a deposit will be profitable to
mine, and works out the best way of
mining it. The mining engineer is
responsible for drilling and blasting.
loading and transporting of mineral
products. and ventilation and general
safety in the mine. Mining engineers may
become involved in mineral benefication
processes. They work in close co-operation
with geologists, surveyors. metallurgists,
chemists and other engineers. Civil
Engineering has quite a lot in common
with Mining Engineering. Recent changes
in the laws of New South Wales allow Civil
Engineers to supervise certain kinds of
open-cut mining that could previously
only be supervised by Mining Engineers.
Resource Engineering is a relatively new
area. It requires engineers with
professional training in applied ecology
and the science and practice of natural
resource management. The course is aimed
at meeting the growing need for
"ecological engineers" to work with
resource development agencies and
industries in planning and managing
environmentally-accepta ble resource
development projects. Graduates can
expect to find employment in such
organizations as water resources agencies,
soil conservation services. public works
departments, pollution control
organizations. civil engineering
contracting firms, mining companies. or
engineering and environmental consulting
firms.
Two degree courses are offered in the
Department of Civil Engineering.
(al BACHELOR OF ENGINEERING
in the speciality of Civil Engineering.
This may be read as a four year full-
time course or a seven year partMtime
course or any combination of full-
time and part-time attendance. The

academic requirements of corporate
membership of the Institution of
Engineers, Australia.

Degree Regulations and course
programmes for the above degrees are set
out in Section 3 of this Handbook.
In addition to the above degree courses,
combined courses leading to the degree of
RE. in the Civil Engineering speciality and
the degree of B.A.. Reom.. REc ..
RMath. or B.Sc. have been approved. The
approved combined course programmes
are set out in Section 5 of this Handbook.
(iii) DEPARTMENT OF
ELECTRICAL AND COMPUTER
ENGINEERING
The Department of Electrical and
Computer Engineering is responsible for
teaching courses in the specialities of
Computer Engineering and Electrical
Engineering.
Electrical and Computer Engineering are
rapidly expanding branches of
engineering. They include such fields as
computer and information science,
switching theory, the theory and design of
automatic control systems. electronics.
and the study of electrical power
generation and distribution.
In preparation for a careerin any branch ~ f
Electrical or Computer Engineering, the
student must acquire a knowledge of the
basic sciences of Mathematics and Physics.
Electrical and Computer Engineering.
perhaps more than most other branches of
engineering, are closely linked with the
pure sciences and require a scientific
outlook and approach for the proper
understanding of the problems involved.
Two degree courses are offered in the
Department of Electrical and Computer
Engineering.

degree of B.A., B.Com .. B.Ec., B.Math. or
B.Sc. have been approved. The approved
combined course programmes are set out
in Section 5 of this Handbook.
(iv) DEPARTMENT OF
MECHANICAL ENGINEERING
The Department of Mechanical
Engineering is responsible for teaching
courses in the specialities of Industrial and
Mechanical Engineering.
Mechanical Engineering is probably the
broadest in scope of all the branches of
engineering. Basically it is concerned with
all aspects of the production and use of
mechanical energy. This involves activities
such as the design and operation of
machinery and mechanisms. but the range
of activities for which mechanical
engineers are responsible is much wider
covering many fields.
Industrial Engineering is closely related to
mechanical engineering but theemphasis is
shifted towards management science,
operations research and economics. The
industrial engineer is concerned with the
design improvement and installation of
integrated systems of men, materials and
equipment.
Two degree courses are offered in the
Department of Mechanical Engineering.
(a) BACHELOR OF ENGINEERING
in the speciality of Mechanical
Engineering. This may be read as a
four year full-time course or a seven
year part-time course or any
combination of full-time and part-
time attendance. This course may
also be taken under a sandwich
pattern. The first two years of this
course are accepted by the University
of New South Wales as exemption
from the first two years of that
University's Bachelor of Engineering
degree Course in Naval Architecture.
16
(b) BACHELOR OF ENGINEERING
in Ihe specialilY of Induslrial
Engineering. This may be read as a
four year full-time course or a seven
year part-time course or any
combination of full-time and part-
time attendance. This course may
also be taken under a sandwich
pattern.
Degree Regulations and course
programmes for the above degrees are set
out in Section 3 of this Handbook.
These degree courses are recognised for the
full academic requirements of corporate
membership of the Institution of
Engineers, Australia. In addition to the
above degree courses, combined courses
leading to the degree of B.E. in either the
Mechanical or Industrial Engineering
speciality and the degree of B.A.. B.eom.,
B.Ec.. B.Math. or B.Sc. have been
approved. The approved combined course
programmes are set out in Section 50fthis
Handbook.
(v) DEPARTMENT OF
METALLURGY
The Department of Metallurgy is
responsible for teaching courses in the
speciality of Metallurgy.
The field of knowledge, experience and
practice covered by the term Metallurgy is
one that has expanded and developed
greatly in the past and is still doing so
today. Briefly metallurgy is concerned with
the extraction of metals from their ores,
their properties, fabrication and
fundamental structure. Embracing such a
wide field the subject gives scope for many
types of interest and allows the inter-action
of many disciplines.
Two degree courses are offered in the
Department of Metallurgy.
(a) BACHELOR OF METALLURGY.
This may be studied as a full-time or
part-time degree and may be taken
out after the successful completion of
the equivalent of four years full-time
study and the fulfilment of the
requirements of industrial
experience. Candidates achieving a
high over-all standard may be
awarded the degree with Honours.
The standard required is calculated
on a grade point average system.
Various combinations of full and
part-time study are available for both
these degree courses.
(b) BACHELOR OF SCIENCE
(METALLURGY). This is a part-
time degree and may be taken out
after the successful completion of the
equivalent of three years full-time
study and fulfilment of the
requirements of industrial
experience.
Degree Regulations and course
programmes for the above degrees are set
out in Section 3 of this Handbook.
In addition to the above degree courses.
the combined course leading to the degrees
of B.Met. and B.Math. has been approved.
The combined course programme is set out
in Section 5 of this Handbook.
3. POSTGRADUATE DEGREES
OFFERED
(i) DIPLOMA IN
INDUSTRIAL ENGINEERING
The Department of Mechanical
Engineering is responsible for the teaching
of subjects which may be taken in the
Diploma of Industrial Engineering.
The Diploma in Industrial Engineering is a
postgraduate course directed especially
towards those concerned with the
planning, supervision and administration
of industrial undertakings. The course has
a twofold objective. Primarily it has been
designed as a bridging course for those
graduates with limited or no formal
training in the various basic disciplines of
industrial engineering. In this respect the
programme of study will be selected so as
to complement the person's particular
technological knowledge with instruction
in the industrial field so that he can better
perform the functions of industrial
management, planning and control. For
those who already have had in their
undergraduate programme, a comprehen-
sive training in the basic disciplines of
industrial engineering, the course has a
secondary objective. In this case the aim is
to broaden the person's basic training with
the offer of study in a wider range of
disciplines which have an important
application in the industrial engineering
field.
The Diploma programme consists of t ~ n
units of formal course work plus two UOits
of project work. Normally this programme
shall be completed in not less than I \ ~ O
years of part-time study, although In
special cases approved by the Faculty
Board. the programme may be completed
in one year on a full-time study basis.
The Regulations for the Diploma in
Industrial Engineeringand the Schedule of
Subjects available is set out in Section 3 of
this Handbook.
(ii) DIPLOMA IN SURVEYING
The Department of Civil Engineering and
Surveying is responsible for the teaching of
subjects which form the core of the
Diploma in Surveying.
The Diploma in Surveying is a
postgraduate course designed to broaden
and further the education of the practising
surveyor. Recent technological changes
have significantly altered the role and
operational techniques of surveyors. Many
items of equipment and computational
methods now in use were unknown ten to
fifteen years ago. The course has a twofold
objective. Primarily, it has been designed
as a bridging course for surveyors with the
professional qualification of the
Reciprocating Surveyors Boards of
Australia and New Zealand. University
Degree Courses in Surveying were not
available when these surveyors passed the
examinations set by those Boards. As a
consequence, the variety and depth of the
modern curriculum was not available to
these people. The Diploma in Surveying is
seen as broadening and updating their
professional training with a choice of
subjects designed to complement their
current knowledge. For those surveyors
who already have had. in their
undergraduate programme, a comprehen-
sive training in the modern developments
in surveying, the course has a secondary
objective. In this case, the aim is to
broaden the person's basic training with
the offer of study in a wider range of
disciplines which have important
applications in some fields of surveying.
The Diploma programme consists of ten
units of formal course work plus two units
of project work. Normally this programme
shall be completed in not less than two
years of part-time study, although in
special cases approved by the Faculty
Board, the programme may be completed
in one year on a full-time basis.
The Regulations for the Diploma in
Surveying, and the Schedule of Subjects
available is set out in Section 3 of this
17 Handbook.
(iii) MASTER OF ENGINEERING
SCIENCE
The Master of Engineering Science degree
has the primary aim of increasing the
knowledge of the student in a specific and
professional area. and therefore places
more emphasis on course work:
nevertheless it includes project work for its
own value both in the broadening and the
consolidation of knowledge, and as an
introduction to research.
The Departments of the Faculty of
Engineering offer a group of subjects
which comprise the major part of the
Master of Engineering Science formal
Master's degree programme.
The Master of Engineering Science degree
course is offered on both a part-time and
full-time basis in order to give graduate
engineers the opportunity to update
themselves in technological areas of
interest. This degree course is flexible in
that candidates for the degree may select
from a large number of subject
combinations which may span one or more
engineering Departments. Some
undergraduate or postgraduate material
may be taken from inside or outside the
Faculty of Engineering as credit for the
degree, provided that such material is
relevant to the programme as a whole. This
possibility offers the advantage of
advanced training and education which is
broad in scope. The course supplements
existing Master of Engineeringand Doctor
of Philosophy programmes which are
usually of a research nature.
The Regulations for the Master of
Engineering Science degree and the
18
subjects offered are set out in Section 3 of
this Handbook.
(iv) MASTER OF ENGINEERING
The Master of Engineering degree has the
primary aim of introducing the student to
research. and bringing him to the point
where he will be able to conduct research
effectively under direction. Course work
will be included in the
programme with a normal minimum
amount of three postgrad uate "units." but
the quality and standard of work required
in the thesis will be at a higher level than
that expected of an Honours Bachelor of
Engineering graduate.
The Regulations for the Master of
Engineering degree arc sel out in Section 3
of this Handbook.
(v) MASTER OF SCIENCE
This degree is similar to the Master of
Engineering degree but is usually taken by
students with a non-engineering
background or students who are carrying
out research in areas related to
engineering.
The Regulations for the Master of Science
degree arc set out in Section 3 of this
Handbook.
(vi) DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY
In addition to the above degrees it is
possible to register for candidature for the
degree of Doctor of Philosophy in each
Department in the Faculty. Students
wishing to obtain information on the
requirements for the degree should address
enquiries to: The Secretary, University of
Newcastle, New South Wales 2308.

III - POLICIES DETERMINED BY FACULTY BOARD
UNDER DEGREE REQUIREMENTS
The following policies have been determined by Faculty Board under the provisions of the
various Regulations currently in force within the University.
(a) Award of Merit and Honours
The Award of Merit and Honours in the Degrees of Bachelor of Engineering, Bachelor
of Science (Engineering), Bachelor of Metallurgy. Bachelor of Science (Metallurgy)
Bachelor of Surveying is based on the complete record of the candidates over the
entIre course.
Faculty Board awards Honours and Merit gradings to students who have met the
requirements for their respective degrees on the recommendation of the appropriate
Head of Department. The following has been approved by faculty Board as a guide
to the method to be followed in the award of Honours and Merit gradings.
Honours Gradings in Bachelor of Engineering,
Bachelor of Metallurgy and Bachelor of Surveying Degrees
I. The subjects taken in the degree are divided into four groups based on the years
in which they would normally have been taken according to the
programmes as set out in the degree schedules.
2. Grade points are assigned to subjects on the basis of the grades obtained in that
subject. as follows:
HD
D 3


FF, WF, AF and EF = 0
3. The product of the grade points assigned to a subject and the unit value of that
subject yields the unit grade point product of each subject.
That is Win
i
= Unit grade point product for subject i
Where Wi = Grade points assigned to subject i
n
i
= Unit value for subject i.
4. The grade point average is calculated for each group of subjects as follows:
GPA(tl
Where GPA(t) = Grade point average of subjects grouped in year t
Wini)t = Sum of unit grade point products for subjects grouped in year t
ni ) t = Sum of unit values for subjects grouped in year t
5. The unweighted overall grade point average (GPA) is calculated thus
GPA
GPA(t)
4
67
6. The weighted overall grade point average (WGPA) is calculated thus
I
WGPA =7 (GPA(I) + GPA(2) + 2GPA(J) + J{l['A(4))
7. rhc weighted overall grade point average calculated abO\c is used as a guide for
the recommendation of honours gradings on the basis of
WGPA:? 2.5 Honours Class I
1.0 -:;: WGPA < 2.5 Honours Class II I)
1.5 -:;: WGPA < 2.0 Honours Class II 2).
8. In making their recommendation Heads of Departments should to the
Faculty Board the complete record of each candidate being recommended for an
honours grading, together with the grade point average for cach yearly grouping
of subjects as well as both the wcighted and unweighted o\'crall grade point
averages.
9. Note (i) The following are excluded from the above calculation:
(a) Subjects for which a full range of grades are not awarded;
(b) Subjects in which a student has been granted standing;
(c) Subjects from which a student has withdrawn without penalty.
(ii) Repeats in a subject after a grade of FF, WF, AF or EF has been
awarded are treated as an extra subject taken in the year in which the
previously failed subject is normaUy taken.
(iii) Any subject taken as an elective shall be given a weighting in the
honours calculations according to the year in which the subject is
normally taken in the courses offered by the Faculty of which the
Department offering the subject forms part.
For example. Engineering 100,200,300 and 400 level subjects would be
given the weighting I. 1.2 and J respectively. Any first year subject
offered by a Department outside the Faculty of Engineering would be
weighted as a first year subject (i.e. I).
(iv) Industrial Experience subjects shall be included in the calculation for
GPA( I) regardless of the year of the course in which such subjects are
completed.
Merit Gradings in Bachelor of Science (Engineering) and
Bachelor of Science (Metallurgy) Degrees
The procedure to be followed for the calculation of grade point averages for the
recommendation of merit grades is similar to that for the recommendation of honours
grades except that:
I. The subjects taken in the degree are divided into groups based on a three year
full-time programme.
2. The weighted overall grade point average is calculated thus
I
WGPA 4 (GPAII) + GPA(2) + 2GPA(3
3. The unweighted overall grade point average is calculated thus
GPA
I
- '" GPA(I)
J -
4. The weighted overall grade point average to be used as a guide for the recom-
mendation of a merit grade is WGPA 2.

(e) Industrial Training
I. General
For the degrees of Bachelor of Engineering and Bachelor of Metallurgy, students will
normally be required to complete a total of at least 12 weeks of practical work of a
nature acceptable to the Faculty Board. This practical experience may be either gained
during long vacations or as part of an Industrial Experience elective.
2. FuJI-time Students
Full-time students will normally gain their practical experience during vacation
employment. Students are required to write a report outlining the experience gained
during each period of practical work. This report must be submitted to the appropriate
Department by the 31st March following the period of employment.
Students experiencing difficulty in obtaining suitable employment during long vacations
may be able to obtain assistance in finding such employment by contacting the
University'S Careers and Student Employment Office.
3. Part-time and Sandwich Pattern Students
(i) Industrial Experience Subjects
Students enrolled in the degree of Bachelor of Engineering on a part-time basis may
choose to take Industrial Experience units as part of their elective programmes. To be
eligible for an Industrial Experience unit, the student must be in approved employment
on the 1st November preceding the year in which the unit is to be taken. This approved
employment must continue for one calendar year, that is. until the 31st October of the
year in which the unit is to be counted. Students enrolled in Industrial Experience units
must attend such lectures. seminars. etc. and submit such reports as the relevant Head of
Department may require. Normally no Industrial Experience unit will be allowed in
the first year of enrolment.
The following is a list of the maximum number of Industrial Experience units that
may be counted towards the degree in the various courses offered.
Mechanical Engineering 3 units
Chemical Engineering 4 units
Civil Engineering 3 units
Computer Engineering 5 units
Electrical Engineering 4 units
Industrial Engineering 3 units
72
Students following the sandwich patterns offered by the Departments of Electrical
and Mechanical Engineering should consult with the Heads of those Departments
before enrolling in Industrial Experience units.
NOTE - The University can accept no responsibility for finding suitable employment
for students wishing to enrol for Industrial Experience units.
The successful completion of one Industrial Experience unit satisfies the requirement
that students complete 12 weeks practical experience.
(ii) Part-time Students Who Do Not Enrol in Industrial Experience Subjects
A student who has been attending on a part-time basis and who during this attendance
has been employed in work of a suitable nature but who has not completed an Industrial
Experience unit may satisfy the Industrial Training requirement by submiuinga report on
the experience gained during this period of part-time attendance.
4. B.Sc.(Eng.) and B.Sc.{Met.} Students
(i) For the degrees of Bachelor of Science (Engineering) and Bachelor of Science
(Metallurgy) students must complete at least three years of practical experience before
the 31st January in the year in which the student is to be admitted to the Degree. If this
requirement is not met admission to the degree may be deferred.
(ii) Students transferring from the degree of Bachelor of Science (Metallurgy) to the
degree of Bachelor of Metallurgy may claim up to five Industrial Experience units as
Met.400 subjects.
(f) Compensation Procedure as Determined by Faculty Board,
Faculty of Engineering
Prior to 1973 Engineering courses offered in the University of Newcastle contained
composite subjects, that is subjects comprising of usually four individual units.
A student could receive a pass in this subject even though that student had failed in one
of the units comprising the subject. This was because performance at a greater than
pass standard in the othe( three units could lead to an average of over 50% in the subject.
Thus, poor performance in one unit of a subject could be compensated by good
performance in the other units of that subject. In 1973 most subjects in the Engineering
courses offered were unitised. The above compensation was no longer available.
This meant in effect that students were required to pass each unit.
In order to retain the previous standards a new compensation procedure was determined
by the Faculty Board as follows:-
I. Grades are awarded in examinations based on percentage marks thus:
Pi ~ 85 high distinction
84 ~ Pi ~ 75 distinction
74? Pi? 65 credit
64? Pi ? 50 pass
Pi ~ 49 fail
where Pi = percentage mark scored in subject i.
2. A compensated pass may only be recommended in Engineering subjects and
those Mathematics subjects designated EM2.
73
3. A compensated pass may only be recommended for a candidate in a subject
where the candidate's result in that subject is "doubtful". A candidate's
result in a subject is considered doubtful if his percentage mark in that
subject is in the range 40 -0::::: Pi -0::::: 49.
4, A compensated pass in any subject can only be recommended for a candidate
when the unit weighted average of the final marks obtained by that
candidate taken on all the subjects attempted in that year by the
candidate exceeds 5se'c. This is when
Pini > 55
nj
where n
i
= number of units in subject i.
Note: For students enrolled in Year I or Stages I and 2 this unit weighted
average is calculated based on Engineering subjects only,
5. The marks available for compensation are calculated from the following
formula:
E = - 55
Note: For students enrolled in Year I and Stages I and 2 the marks available
for compensation are calculated and based on performance in
Engineering subjects only.
6. Where the percentage mark scored in a subject is not available and in the absence
of information allowing a closer approximation of the percentage mark scored
in that subject the following percentage mark based on the grade obtained in the
subject is used in the above calculations:
Fail (2) 15
Fail (I) 39
Pass 58
Credit 70
Distinction = 80
High Distinction = 93
7. A candidate's "doubtful" subjects (i.e. subjects in which the candidate has scored
40-49% are arranged in descending order according to the percentage mark
scored). The marks available for compensation, calculated according to the
above formula, are added to the percentage mark of the first "doubtful" subject.
If this sum is less than 50 of the result of fail in the subject stands. If this sum is
equal to or greater than 50 a compensated pass is recommended for the candidate
in this subject. Any excess of this sum over 50 is added to the percentage mark
of the next "doubtful" subject and if the sum is equal to or exceeds 50 a compensated
pass is recommended for this subject also. If the sum is less than 50 the result of
fail in the subject stands. This process is repeated until the excess is exhausted.
8. An example of this procedure is set out on the following page.

Units
In undergraduate courses. a unit is approximately one-sixteenth ofa full-time year or one-
eighth of a part-time yea--. In engineering subjects. one unit involves a total of 42 hours per
year (I !h hours per week for the whole year, or 3 hours per week for half a year) oflectures.
laboratories. and tutorials. Where subjects from other faculties form part of an
Engineering course, the unit value is assessed on the basis of the work-load required for
that subject as part of a normal year's programme. Normally, Part I subjects each count as
4 units while complete Pari II and Part III subjects havea higher unit value. However, the
unit value specified for subjects in other faculties is determined from time to time by the
Faculty Board.
For further information students should consult the Dean of the Faculty.
In the Master of Engineering Science Requirements a unit is defined as exactly one-
twelfth of a full-time year, and in all postgraduate courses, including the Master of
Engineering and Doctor of Philosophy the unit is understood to have the same value. This
"postgraduate unit" is also defined as a programme which involves a student in a total of
approximately 120 hours' work. This total includes all formal course work plus
assignments and study. If the "unit" is a formal instructional course the 120-hour total
includes 42 hours of lectures or the equivalent.
What the two "units" - undergraduate and postgraduate - have in common is therefore
the same 42 "contact-hours" per year. The postgraduate unit is a larger fraction of the
year's work than the undergraduate unit because in postgraduate work the student is
expected to do more work per contact-hour than he is in undergraduate work.
Computer Numbers
The six digit number which precedes the subject number and title of each subject is the
CompUfer Code Numher. The computer code numbers of relevant subjects should be
quoted on all enrolment and variation of programme forms. The computer code numbers
of all subjects offered within the Faculty of Engineering appear with the subject
descriptions and are also listed in Section 6 of this Handbook.
Subject Numbers
Each subject offered by Departments within the Faculty of Engineering has been given an
identification number with prefixed letters to aid identification of subjects. This is known
as the Subject Numher.
The letter prefix indicates the area of specialisation and often indicates the department
responsible for the teaching of the subject concerned. The letter prefixes are as follows:
ChE Chemical Engineering
(Depanment of Chemical Engineering)
CE Civil Engineering
(Department of Civil Engineering & Surveying)
EE Electrical & Computer Engineering
(Department of Electrical & Computer Engineering)
EM Engineering Mathematics
(Department of Mathematics)
GE General Engineering
(Departments of the Faculty of Engineering)
ME Mechanical & Industrial Engineering
(Department of Mechanical Engineering)
Met Metallurgy
(Department of Metallurgy)
SV Surveying
(Department of Civil Engineering & Surveying)
The identification numbers which follow the letter prefix often indicate a particular field
of study. The fields of study so indicated are listed in the table opposite.

Prerequisites and Corequisites
Prerequisites are those subjects which the student must have already passed before
enrolling in the subject.
Corequisites are those subjects in which the student must enrol concurrently unless he has
already passed them.
The Dean, on the recommendation of the Head of Department. may relax pre- and
corequisites.
Hours
All subjects in the Faculty of Engineering are based on units of 42 contact hours each.
The 42 contact hours are spread over a whole year (I V;. hours per week for 28 weeks) or
over a half year (3 hours per week for 14 weeks). As far as possible this information is given
in the University timetable. If in doubt. students should check with Departments before
completing their enrolment.
Assumed Knowledge (Mechanical Engineering Subjects Only)
Many subjects which form part of the Mechanical Engineering and Industrial
Engineering programmes are taught on the basis of an assumption that students have
previously completed certain other subjects. The particular subjects which are assumed to
have been completed in each case are indicated in the appropriate Subject Entries set out
on pages 115 to 126 of this Handbook.
It is the responsibility of each student to ensure that they have met the assumed knowledge
requirement of each subject in which they enrol. If in doubt. students should discuss the
matter with the lecturer of the subject in which they intend to enrol.
It should be noted that students may enrol only in those subjects approved by the Dean.
Such approval may be withheld where it becomes apparent that a student has not attained
the level of knowledge assumed by a subject in which enrolment has been sought.
Examinations and Assessment
Progressive Assessment based on assignments, practical work etc. is used throughout the
Faculty and in some subjects the final grade is based entirely on progressive assessment.
Students will be advised of the form the assessment in a particular subject will take before
the end of 4th week of lectures.
Content
This section gives a general description of the content of the subject and indicates the
broad areas covered.
Preliminary Reading is included where applicable. Students should make every effort to
complete the preliminary reading before starting the subject.
Texts
Essential books which are recommended for purchase.
References
Information on reference material applicable to a particular subject will be provided by
the lecturer in charge of that subject.

This course is concerned with developing a student's ability to write computer
programmes that use numerical analysis techniques to solve problems in the engineering
field. Some discussion of the theories behind the numerical analysis techniques is given
but the main emphasis is on computing.
The programming work of Engineering Computations I is extended to include some
advanced Fortran programming techniques. the use of graph-plouing routines and the
use of computer libraries such as the NAG library. Emphasis is placed on curve fitting to
well-ordered data and to experimental data and the differentiation and integration of such
data. Systems of equations, both linear and non-linear are considered. Other material
covered includes solution of ordinary differential equations and partial differential
.equations.

A course of lecture:. and di:.cussions focussing on the ethical, spiritual. social, political and
economic issues that arise in technological decision:.. The course is presented in two
parallel strands. Strand A is based on an examination of Australian energy policy. This
example of decision making is used to develop an awareness of (i) how non-technical
dimensions enter dccisions and (ii) a systematic approach to public policy making.
Strand B complement:. Strand A by introducing a range of additional topics which
broaden the horizon of consideration and deepen the treatment of specific features of
decision making.

A team project on the role of technical and value factors in technological decision making.
Students will form small teams under staff leadership for a year-long intensive study of a
specific example of technological decision making. The aim is to provide a comprehensive
and accurate understanding of the interaction between technical and value factors in the
decision. Each team will produce a report of a quality aimed at management/ ministerial
discussion. Evaluation will be by the Team Report plus staffleader's/ team's assessment of
individual contributions. Example projects are Nuclear Electric Power for Australia?, A
Study of Technology Assessment. A wider variety of projects can be undertaken, selection
by teams will occur during the first two weeks of term.

Content

Nil
3 lecture hours per week and fortnightly tutorials
One 2-hour paper during mid-year examination period. a
three hour final examination and progressive assessment,
including regular quizzes.
This course is designed to introduce the student to the principles of economics. While
emphasis throughout the course is on the theoretical underpinnings of the economic
science, the concepts developed afford significant insights into contemporary problems.
The theoretical concepts developed will be used to discuss such important questions as:
Is it true that unemployment cannot be reduced without increasing inflation? What is a
"credit squeeze'"? How much does Australian tariff policy cost Australians? Is there
really an energy crisis? Can environmental degradation be eliminated? What are the
reasons for poverty in Australia? What are the major causes of poverty in the Third
World?
The first few lectures are designed to introduce the student to the nature of scientific
inquiry in economics and to some of the tools of the economist. The notion that
economics is only concerned with business decision-making will be quickly dispelled.
This is followed by a series of lectures concerning income determination for the economy
as a whole. The basic Keynesian theory is considered and is compared with the monetarist
approach. Various theories of business cycles are reviewed and the roles of monetary and
fiscal policy in stabilizing economic activity are considered. The causes and consequences
of inflation are examined.
143
Next attention will be directed to the principles of microeconomics and some of their
applications. (n microeconomics attention is focused on how the prices of products
and productive factor (including labour) are determined and how this determination is
governed by the degree of competition in the market.
The final section of the course introduces international trade theory and its Australian
applications; as well, the problems of Third World countries will be investigated.
With regard to trade theory we will look at such questions as: Why do countries
specialise in certain products? Why do countries erect trade barriers such as quotas
and tariffs? How are exchange rates determined? What institutions are responsible for
facilitating international trade? With regard to Third World countries we willlook at
such questions as: What is the meaning of development? What are the major causes of
poverty in the Third World? Are there solutions to that poverty?

All students take the core-strand Introduction to Philosophical Problems and two
options, one from each of Groups A and B below. Each of the three components is taught
for o.ne hour per week throughout the year, with some additional non-compulsory
tutOrials.

Core-strand 381111 Introduction to Philosophical Problems
Contelll
In the first half of this course, the ethical. political and metaphysical questions raised in
some of Plato's dialogues will be systematically expounded. In the second half. three
varieties of philosophical problems will be discussed: (a) some questions in epistemology,
which is the branch of philosophy concerned with such topics as knowledge, belief.
certainty. and perception; (b) problems about the relation of body and mind, and
personal identity; and (c) problems arising from the use of religious language. Evaluation:
two short essays and 2-hour examination.

Plato The La.\f Dan or Socrafe.\ (Tredennick. (ed.))
(Penguin)' .
Vesey. G. (ed.) Philo.l"Ophy in [he Open (Open V.P.)
Option Group A
Option I: 381114 Political Philosophy
An examination of Plato's early technocratic theory of scientist-kings, Machiavelli's
psychology of politics, modern pessimistic and optimistic views of human nature, concern
with community and alienation. J. S. Mill's liberalism. Thc second half discusses in some
detail Karl Marx's view of the state. law. ideology, the role of economic factors, his theory
of alienation and of classless society. Evaluation: either by a voluntary seminar paper or a
short essay and by a 2-hour examination in November.
Option 2: 381106 Moral Problems
An introductory examination of some contemporary moral problems. especially' ones
concerning the taking and preserving of human life. and a survey of such major moral
theories as divine command theory, utilitarianism, and natural law ethics. Evaluation: by
assignment and by examination.
Option 3: 381112 Psychoanalysis and Philosophy
A philosophical examination of the dynamic theory of mind proposed by Sigmund Freud.
with particular critical reference to his individualism and his social theory.
Option Group B
Option 4: 381108 Knowledge and Explanation
This is a course in how we come to know things. and how we explain them to ourselves and
others. What sorts of things do we believe in. and why? What is scientific knowledge and
why is it called knowledge? What is the difference between having an opinion on
something and knowing it? Has the advent of science, both natural and social. enhanced
or diminished our capacity to know and explain? Are there some things that science can
neither know nor explain? Evaluation: one brief assignment plus a 2-hour take home
examination.
Option 5: 381109 Philosophy of Religion
What. if anything, does religious experience teach us? Is there a God? Are religious beliefs
merely subjective or hypothetical? Is religious language essentially symbolic? Can we
reconcile the presence of evil in the world with the existence of an all-powerful. all-wise,
and perfectly good God? Is death final? How are religion and morality related?
Evaluation: short essay and 2-hour examination.
154
Option 6: 381110 Critical Reasoning
This option aims at the development of skills in analyzing. evaluating and advancing
arguments. It is not a course in formal logic, of which only minimal use is made.
Considerable emphasis is placed on arguments as they naturally occur. and on reasoning
as an everyday practice. Evaluation: exercises and class tests.
Option 7: 3811 13 Logic
There are fll'o distinct and separate courses offered for this option.
Either
(a) elementary traditional logic; an introduction to the forms of facts and the forms of
argument from consideration of the structure and method of science;
0,
(b) an introduction to modern symbolic logic.
