The objective is to complete all the requisite AUs to obtain an Honours degree in three and a half years. In order to accomplish this, the student is expected to take an overload in each of the five semesters of study (excluding the already completed semester I and Semester V, which will be for Industrial Attachment).
This suggested plan may be altered provided all the subject pre-requisites are met and there is no clash in the subject or exam timetable.
Note that students may be asked to drop out of this scheme if they fail to maintain consistent performance in their studies.
