UTS Eng + Diploma Prof. Prac (drop the diploma?) (1 Viewer)

[Neil_]

I think the diploma in professional practice is stupid.. You gotta find your own internship, it's the equivalent of just doing four years and finding an internship yourself.

I wanna spend less years at uni, is there a way I can drop the diploma and just do the regular 4 years?

I know you can drop the Diploma that comes with BScIT in the final year, but I'm not sure for engineering. Best to call student centre and ask.

Engineers Australia requires 12 weeks experience anyway, so the courses without the diploma (Intl students + combined degrees) require that instead.

Officially, the Practice Program guide is quite explicit about it not being opt out and only the courses above not needing it.
