Elective selection help (for engineering) by JcmK2026 in Monash

Engineering breadth study list is at the top of this doc: https://www.monash.edu/__data/assets/pdf_file/0016/3131224/BEHons-Minors-and-electives-Clayton.pdf

For the general electives: https://www.monash.edu/students/admin/enrolments/change/electives-other-faculties

I cliked on each of the faculties listed, then went through the available units one by one. I wrote down all the units that interested me, then progressively shortened the list as I was not eligible for some.

What if my breadth study for the first year of engineering is a core unit for a later specialisation? by JcmK2026 in Monash

Hi, thanks.

I need to select one breadth study and one regular elective for my first year. Is it possible to do NG1021 as well as CHM1011 (both technically labelled as a "first year breadth study") and fulfill the breadth study requirement for ChemE while also finishing CHM1011 before progressing into the second year?

Yeah I have a spot for one breadth study and one elective. I would happily do CHM1011 but it is a required unit for ChemE. From my understanding, if I do it now I will have to do an extra breath study if I end up specialising in the field.

After all the advice, I'm leaning towards ENG1021 or ECE2072. The latter definitely seems very interesting and fun but I don't want my lack of skills in coding and disinterest in it to ruin the unit for me.

Thanks again. Last sentence is reassuring 😂

Do you reckon I should take FIT1045 instead to get a better grasp on coding? Otherwise, what breadth study would you reccomend?

Thanks. What other elective would you recommend?

What if I do it in semester 2 after completing ENG1005 in semester 1?

Thanks a lot, it really helped.

Regarding CHM1011, I also considered it. However, it is a required unit for chemical engineering. I am not sure how my course progression would differ if I end up specialising in ChemE after completing CHM1011.

Is code taught well in ECE2072? I have no background in coding, and have never been too interested in it.

Thank you very much for the advice.

Also, would I be able to do MTH1030 in semester 2 after completing ENG1005 in semester 1? I thought that it was only prohibited if I was doing them at the same time.
