Equivalence of New and Old units
This page provides an overview of the changes to units of study for 2005 and 2006. In particular, it describes the relationship between 2005/2006 units of study and old units.
All ELEC and EBUS units have undergone change for 2005 with the exception of ELEC4702 Practical Experience. The old 4 credit point units have become 6 credit point with a change in unit code and (in many case) a change in title. In most case, the change in content is minimal. Note, however, the situation concerning the 2nd and 3rd year Digital units.
All Science/Commerce units have changed or changing to 6 credit points.
The tables below summarise the changes.

Equivalent ELEC and EBUS units
This table lists the old ELEC and EBUS units which have been replaced, with their new equivalents. If a new unit is listed as "equivalent" to an old unit, any degree requirements on the old unit carry over to the new unit unless there has been a rule change removing any such requirements. The old and the new unit are also prohibited (mutually exclusive).

Science/Commerce units
The old MATH2001 and MATH2002 will be amalgamated as MATH2061. MATH2005 and SOFT2001will no longer be core requirements. Student for whom MATH2001 and MATH2002 were core requirements and who have completed neither will be required to complete MATH2061. The Science Faculty will make special arrangements for students who have completed one of MATH2001, MATH2002.

A note on Digital units
The changes in the units in the digital area amount, in essence, to an interchange of the 2004 2nd year unit ELEC2601 and the 3rd year unit ELEC3601. For 2005, the following transitional arrangement will be in place:
| Semester 1
|
Semester 2 |
|---|---|
|
ELEC3608 (= ELEC3601) |
ELEC2602 (= ELEC3601) |
|
ELEC3607 (=ELEC2601) |
Note that ELEC3608 will exist only in 2005. There is more information on the effect of these changes on enrolments.
