Honours

The Bachelor of Engineering (Civil) (Honours) may be awarded with Honours. The class of Honours to be awarded to a student is dependent upon:

• the percentage results achieved by study or transfer in twelve courses (144 units) as specified in the table below; and
• the student achieving at least 65% in ENG402 Engineering Project 2.

A student must complete a minimum of 8 courses (96 units) in the table and the research project for an honours grade to be awarded.

The minimum levels of achievement normally required for each class of honours are shown in the following table:

*The percentage result shall be rounded up if ≥ 0.5 or rounded down if < 0.5.

Note: Program structures are subject to change. Not all USC courses are available on every USC campus.
