An alternative engineering practice pathway has been developed for students who intend to study the MEPRMaster of Engineering Practice immediately after completing the Bachelor of Engineering Science program.The BENS engineering practice pathway is designed to enable experienced engineering Associates to drawon their industrial experience to demonstrate their achievement of the required generic and technical capabilitiesto Engineers Australia Stage 2 Experienced Technologist Competency attributes. BENS graduates who havecompleted this engineering practice pathway may be considered for entry into the MEPR Master of EngineeringPractice program after receiving formal Engineers Australia Technologist accreditation using their Bachelorof Engineering Science (BENS) practice pathway e-Portfolio. The engineering practice pathway is an optionfor students who hold an ADNG Associate Degree of Engineering or close equivalent and have five years ofrelevant industry experience at the time they enter the Bachelor of Engineering Science program. The pathwayincludes the approved courses ENG3300 Industry Experience Evaluation Portfolio, ENG3311 TechnologistWork-Integrated Learning Project A and ENG3312 Technologist Work-Integrated Learning Project B. Thepathway courses will allow students to claim credit for up to four nominated core courses in the Bachelor ofEngineering Science. Students who have the appropriate industrial experience, and are eligible for 10 or moreexemptions upon entry into the Bachelor of Engineering Science (BENS) program may undertake this pathway.The ENG3300 Industry Experience Evaluation Portfolio will enable students to assess their existing attributesand capabilities, and complete a technologist workplace e-portfolio to demonstrate their level of competencyachievements. They will also nominate and map these achievements to nominated Bachelor of EngineeringScience (BENS) technical courses outcomes for credit by workplace integrated learning (WIL) reports andother competency assessment when undertaking the ENG3311 Technologist Work-Integrated Learning ProjectA and ENG3312 Technologist Work-Integrated Learning Project B courses. These courses require studentsto develop Career Episode Reports (CERs), verified by a professional supervisor, preferably a professionalengineer, to demonstrate their work integrated learning (WIL) experience in the Workplace Portfolio and plantheir Bachelor of Engineering Science (BENS) engineering practice program pathway to graduation. Thispathway to graduation includes the student’s plan for their WIL Reports to demonstrate technical competencydefined by the learning objectives of their nominated BENS course they are seeking credit for by their WILexperience. Both outcomes will be assessed to the level of competency achieved with respect to EngineersAustralia's (EA) Stage 2 experienced Technologist Competencies, but also articulated up against the broaderdiscipline (EA) Stage 1 (Graduate) Professional Engineer Competencies.

A passing grade in ENG3300 Industry Experience Evaluation Portfolio does not guarantee that students areadvised to enrol in ENG3311 Technologist Work-Integrated Learning Project A or ENG3312 TechnologistWork-Integrated Learning Project B. To continue in ENG3311 and ENG3312, the student must demonstratethat they have the required experiences or competencies. If the student is not deemed to be eligible to continuein ENG3311 or ENG3312, they will not continue in the Bachelor of Engineering Science (BENS) engineeringpractice pathway, but resume the usual academic Bachelor of Engineering Science (BENS) standard enrolmentpattern. In such a case, if the student passes ENG3300, the course will be deemed a credit upon resuming theBachelor of Engineering Science (BENS) academic enrolment pattern.

The course ENG3300 Industry Experience Evaluation Portfolio is pre-requisite to ENG3311 TechnologistWork-Integrated Learning Project A and ENG3312 Technologist Work-Integrated Learning Project B. It isdesigned to enable students to firstly assess the amount of credit that they could be granted based on theirwork experience and their ability to complete either ENG3311 Technologist Work-Integrated Learning ProjectA and ENG3312 Technologist Work-Integrated Learning Project B. As part of ENG3300 Industry ExperienceEvaluation Portfolio, students produce a self-assessed portfolio in which they nominate the Bachelor ofEngineering Science core courses that they will address in ENG3311 Technologist Work-Integrated LearningProject A and in ENG3312 Technologist Work-Integrated Learning Project B. The course examiner will assessthe portfolio and may direct students to do ENG3311 for a claim of up to two credit units or to do bothENG3311 and ENG3312 for a claim of up to four credit units.

Exit pointsStudents who, for whatever reason, are unable to complete the Bachelor of Engineering Science and whosatisfy all of the requirements of either the Associate Degree of Engineering or the Diploma of EngineeringStudies may be permitted to exit with that award.

CreditExemptions/credit will be assessed based on the USQ Credit and Exemption Procedure.

Work Experience

Work and industrial experience that has not been formally assessed, does not normally qualify for coursecredit in the Bachelor of Engineering Science program. The MEPR Master of Engineering Practice and theBENS/MEPR Engineering Practice Pathway has been established with the capacity of recognising and formallyassessing industrial and work integrated learning (WIL) experience. Existing work experience may be usedto satisfy the practical/work experience requirements when completing the ENG3909 Work Experience -Technologist practice course.

Other informationThe Faculty of Health, Engineering and Sciences may permit a student to enrol in an approved course otherthan those specified for the accredited program. Students who wish to enrol in approved courses other thanthose listed, must obtain written approval from their Major Convenor prior to enrolling in the course.

To satisfy the requirements of the program students must complete all Academic and Practice courses in thefollowing recommended enrolment patterns. Students following a non-standard enrolment pattern shouldconsult the course specification to ascertain if a course is offered in another term.

Agricultural Engineering major full-time recommended enrolment patternStudents are able to enrol in any offered mode of a course (on-campus, external or online), regardless of theprogram mode of study they enrolled in.
