About
In this stream for high achieving students (ATAR of 98.00 or higher) you will have access to academic enrichment opportunities, including accelerated study options and advanced units of study from outside your primary discipline, mentoring and professional skill development plus a global mobility experience.
The Dalyell Scholars stream is integrated within the Bachelor of Engineering Honours. You may take any engineering stream, however for options such as space engineering, the number of places is strictly limited and/or entry requirements are higher.
You may apply to change your chosen Engineering stream after enrolment. Any change should be made as early as possible in the program to limit the need for catch-up work and to ensure satisfactory completion of the requirements for the new stream.
Areas of study
As a Dalyell Scholar, in addition to the requirements of your chosen B Engineering Honours stream, you will undertake 12 credit points of distinctive Dalyell units complemented by a suite of additional enrichment opportunities, including mentoring, professional skill development and the option of a global mobility experience.
