Ok, I'll try.

There are 12 months in a year.
Now, to find out how many months are in 4 years, we multiply the number of months in a year by the number of years.
Doing the calculations, 4 x 12 = 48 months.
Therefore, 48 months is the same a 4 years.

This thread is proof you should not be doing engineering.

I think you should clarify it with the UNSW faculty of Engineering. The best way is to talk to academic planner who are available for all faculties including engineering.

I saved you the hassle of finding out directly linking you to the site.
http://www.eng.unsw.edu.au/info-about/contact-us

You can email but i found that emailing takes alooot of time. so best contact them on student enquiries at the engineering school offices. Click on Student enquiries.

I had the same problem as you. When i got into Commerce and law it said 60 months course when on the outline it clearly said 5 years. So i called them up. Apparently you might have applied to a DIPLOMA of Engineering which is like a side off of an actual Bachelor of engineering course.

So a bachelor of engineering is 4 years gives you the proper degree while a DIPLOMA of engineering(48 month) at UNSw gives you only a limited qualifications of an engineer. Better confirm it with UAC as well. They might have mistaken your UAC application as well.
