PREFACE Newcastle University College was formally opened as a

College of the New South Wales University of Technology, now the University of New South Wales, on 3rd December, 1951. Prior to this date, Newcastle Technical College had provided training for degrees of the University in Engineering and Science.

The government of the University College is vested in the Council of the University of New South Wales, to whom authority to maintain branches, departments or colleges of the University is given under the Technical Education and University of New South Wales Act, 1949-1958. Council has established an Advisory Committee to assist in the development of the College. The Committee meets at least once each term and includes in its membership prominent citizens of Newcastle and representatives of local educational, industrial and cultural interests.

The more important details of the degree and diploma courses provided in the various branches of Science, Engineering Technology, Arts, Commerce and Architecture are set out in this Handbook. (Information covering regulations, by-laws, etc., is contained in the Calendar of the University of New South Wales.) These courses are controlled by the respective faculties of the University and are supervised by its professorial staff.

Facilities for post·graduate study are available and students may proceed to the degrees of Master of Science, Master of Engineering, Master of Arts, Master of Commerce and Doctor or Philosophy.

Further information may be obtained from the Registrar, Newcastle University College, Tighe's Hill, N.S.W. (Telephone MA 0466-after 5 p.m., MA 3041.)

The five subjects must satisfy the matriculation requirements as set out on pages 18 to 20 for the full-time courses.

Students must pass in all requisite subjects at the one examination period provided that accumulation of subjects from more than one examination is permissible only in the following circumstances:-

(a) Part-time technical college students may add passes in the Technical Education Qualifying examination of one year to passes gained at the Qualifying (Deferred) examination at the beginning of the next year;

(b) students who have passed the Leaving Certificate examination as a whole (i.e., have gained at least four "B" passes) may complete any additional subjects at the Qualifying (Deferred) or Matriculation examinations at the commencement of the following year. However, if a student passes in less than four subjects at the Leaving Certificate examination (i.e., he does not gain the Certificate) he will not be credited with these passes but must take all necessary subjects at the Qualifying (Deferred) or Matriculation examinations. Similar conditions apply to students of the Day Matriculation Course who sit for the Technical Education Qualifying examinations.

20

Candidates who fail to complete all requirements in one examination period must present all subjects again the following year. Special concessions are granted to students in Technical College trade courses who are taking courses in the School of General Studies. These students should consult the Student Counsellor for further details.

Students enrolling in part-time courses must include the following subjects, in addition to English, amongst those taken for matriculation in order to secure unrestricted entry:-

tained in the Calendar of the University of New South Wales.

Commonwealth Scholarships, New South Wales Public Service Board Traineeships, State Bursaries and Exhibitions, Teachers' College Scholarships, Joint Coal Board Scholarships and Australian Coal Association (Research) Ltd. Scholarships in Mining Engineering, and the Australian Atomic Energy Commission Scholarships in Applied Geology, Metallurgy or Chemical Engineering, are tenable at the Newcastle University College.

In addition a number of privately endowed scholarships and fellowships are available, details of which are shown in the University Calendar.

ENROLMENT PROCEDURE All intending students should consult the Counsellor, who

will advise them concerning the enrolment procedure. Dates for enrolment are given in the "List of Principal Dates" (see pages 5 to 7).

COUNSELLING SERVICE Each student of the College is invited to discuss with the

Counsellor, at any time during his course, his methods of study, his general adjustment to the course and any other personal factors relating to his progress in his chosen field. An appointment may be arranged personally or by telephone.

23

COURSES OF STUDY Undergraduate courses leading to a degree of Bachelor of

Arts, Commerce, Engineering, or Science are available. Degrees are awarded in Honours (First Class and Second ,class) and Pass grades. Unless otherwise stated, the award of Honours at Graduation is determined by the performance of a student in the individual subjects of his course and his work in a special thesis project where such is required.

In most cases degree courses are offered on both a full-time and on a part-time basis. The part-time courses are of the same standard as the equivalent full-time courses and are arranged to enable the student to remain continuously in employment related to his studies throughout the whole course. In certain cases students taking a course at Newcastle University College may be required to transfer to Sydney to complete the later years of the course. For example, in Electrical Engineering and Mining Engineering only the first two years of the full-time course are offered at Newcastle. For further information concerning this requirement students should consult the Counsellor.

The University administers a number of the diploma courses of the Department of Technical Education. On satisfying the prescribed educational and vocational requirements of these courses, students are awarded the diploma of Associateship of Sydney Technical College (A.S.T.C.). Where both a diploma course and a part-time degree course are conducted in the same subject, the courses follow a common syllabus throughout the early stages, and students who are occupationally qualified may in general gain the diploma by completing the first five years (six years in the case of Chemical Engineering and Metallurgy) of the corresponding part-time degree course. The diploma courses administered by the University of New South Wales at Newcastle are:

Department of Science-Applied Chemistry. Department of Engineering-Civil Engineering, Electrical

Engineering, Mechanical Engineering. Department of Technology-Chemical Engineering, Metal

lurgy, Manual Arts. Faculty of Architecture-Architecture.

24

Students completing a diploma course in the Departments of Science, Engineering or Technology may proceed to the appropriate degree with full credit for their diploma studies. Students in these Departments who obtained a diploma before the alignment of the diploma and part-time degree courses may proceed to a degree by undertaking further study in a conversion course. Details of conversion courses available at Newcastle are included in the Handbook.

POST-GRADUATE STUDY Facilities for post-graduate study are available in most of

the Schools at the College and a number of students are already proceeding to higher degrees. Graduate students, including certain A.S.T.e. diploma holders, wishing to proceed to a higher degree should consult the Head of the appropriate School. Particulars of conditions governing the award of higher degrees are given in the Calendar of the University.

SCHOOL OF APPLIED PHYSICS

The full degree course in Applied Physics (Course I) will not be offered at Newcastle in 1959.

Students desiring to take a Science course with Physics as a major subject should consult the syllabus for the Science courses.

SCHOOL OF CHEMISTRY The needs of the chemical industry for men competent to

devise, develop, and operate new processes and to improve existing ones, make essential different types of training. One type involves a training in fundamental science with the emphasis on chemistry. Training of this type is provided by the School of Chemistry, where students receive instruction in the principles of inorganic, analytical, organic and physical chemistry, supplemented by instruction in mathematics and physics. In his final year the student is given the opportunity of electing to do certain subjects to enable him to extend his knowledge in fields of special interest.

25

It should be noted that the work in chemistry, physics and mathematics taken in the first year of the full-time course, and in the first and second years of the part-time course in Applied Chemistry, is identical with that taken in the same years of the courses in Chemical Engineering and Metallurgy. Students in any of these courses may therefor transfer from one to another without loss of standing up to the end of the first year full-time, or second year part-time.

COURSE II-APPLIED CHEMISTRY

This course may be taken at Pass or Honours standard. The Pass course requires full-time attendance at the University for the first and second years and part-time attendance for the third and fourth years. The Honours course requires full-time attendance for three years, the fourth year requiring full-time attendance for one term and part-time attendance for two terms. Both Pass and Honours students will be required to complete satisfactorily a course of approved practical training in industry.

4.23 Metallurgical Engineering

The courses in Mechanical Engineering are planned to provide a sufficient foundation of basic science applied to engineering methods and techniques to prepare the graduate to enter any industry dealing with heat, power, materials and machinery. The course does not attempt to teach current commercial practice or specialised knowledge of the product of anyone industry. On the contrary, undergraduates are expected to obtain their practical experience by direct service in industry.

three periods in industry between the various academic sessions. The first two periods are spent in engineering workshops and the third in a drawing office.

45

The professional work of the third and fourth years includes the study of the mechanics of fluids and of rigid and elastic bodies with applications to design. The study of thermodynamics is applied to heat engineering, and to the analysis and design of power plants, turbines, steam and internal combustion engines, industrial heating, and to refrigeration and air conditioning systems. Engineering processes are considered in relation to design for production; and work on metrology, gauges and fixtures, tool design, tolerances and inspection is introduced.

The professional elective subjects in the fourth year permit students to choose a broad phase of mechanical engineering as a special study. In this way the student learns to use libraries and technical journals, and is made to realise how fully the knowledge he has gained during his course is used in engineering development and practice. The preparation of a thesis provides a training in report-writing and in technical exposition.

Generally, the project will involve the design and construction of experimental apparatus together with laboratory tests. Where possible the projects will be related to the research programme of the School and will be designed to develop the student's initiative. Each student will be required to deliver a seminar paper and to prepare a thesis based on the results of the project work.

Provision is made in the full-time course for students to undertake additional work in· their third and fourth years towards the award of an Honours degree.

SCHOOL OF MINING ENGINEERING AND APPLIED GEOLOGY

COURSE VII-MINING ENGINEERING

Technical developments in the mining industry are such as to demand increasing engineering proficiency from various grades of mining officials. These developments require that those who are being trained for the management of the industry shall receive firstly, a sound training in mechanical, electrical and some branches of civil engineering, and secondly, the application of these developments to the mining of coal and other minerals. A knowledge of the basic subjects, mathematics, physics, chemistry, etc., is also essential in order that such auxiliary subjects as coal cleaning, mineral dressing, gases and atmospheric conditions in mine~, etc., may be properlv understood. Hence in the construction of the Mining Engineering course the object has been to produce mining engineers having a sound training in engineering subjects and well versed in the application of engineering principles in the mining industry.

In the first two years of the course, the subjects taught are the basic science subjects, together with the primary engineering subjects, and an introduction to mining technology. Mining subjects proper are introduced in the second year, and are developed in the third and fourth years of the course, concurrently with the engineering subjects. Subjects which are important to mining engineers, such as surveying, mineral dressing and geology are given their proper place in the course.

The training in mining is aimed at giving students a thorough foundation in such subjects as mine ventilation; mine drainage; mine lighting; winding, haulage and transport; these subjects being common to practically all branches of mining work. The specialised application of these subjects to coal and metalliferous mining is dealt with in the final year of the course. Thus, although the course is designed to give students a sound training in mining, it also permits them to specialise in either coal or metalliferous mining.

62

Specialisation is taken a stage further in the fourth vear of t?e course by the provision of elective subjects for the preparatlO~ of theses. Preparatory work for the theses will commence durmg ~he pra.ctical training period following the third year of academiC studies and will be continued by reading in the first and second terms of the fourth year. The third term in the ~ourth year will be spent on further practical investigations and In the preparation of theses.

The students in the Mining Engineering course are required to sp~nd five m?nths of ea~h of the first three years in obtaining practical expenence at mmes, the training being based on a ~re~ared programme designed to provide a comprehensive train. ~ng. In ma~y aspects of mining work. This training is important In lts,relatlo~ to the academic training and to the Mines Department s requirements of practical training for candidates for Statutory Certificates of Competency.

The first and second years of the course are offered at Newcastle, the. rem.ainder of the course may be completed in Sydney at the Umverslty of New South Wales.

COURSE VIlA-APPLIED GEOLOGY

The development of natural resources and the allied engineering activities make essential a type of training for geologists which embraces basic geological instruction and various features of its application in practice. The structure and syllabus of this course is designed so as to enable the graduates to enter immediately upon various aspects of applied geology and to play an effective part in associated engineering and technological practice.

In the early part of the course students receive instruction in the allied fundamental sciences and basic engineering subjects as well as introductory geology. Later geological instruction is developed and emphasis is placed progressively on engineering application and on economic aspects of geology.

The applied nature of the course is indicated by the inclusion of descriptive geometry, drawing and design, strength of

*56454-3 K 5284 65

materials, civil and mining engineering practice, soil mechanics, etc. Detailed treatment is given to various aspects of applied geology-engineering geology, mining geology, photogeology and geochemistry. Surveying and geophysics are also included.

Attendance at the University for students taking the fulltime course is for two terms during the first three years and for three terms during the fourth year. All students will be required to complete satisfactorily a course of approved practical training during vacations. The part-time course (Course VIIB) is of six years' duration and is designed for students already engaged on work allied to the subject matter of the course.

SCHOOL OF CIVIL ENGINEERING

Civil Engineering is broad in its scope, utilizing other specialised branches of engineering in planning, co-ordinating and constructing national works such as water supply and conservation projects, hydro-electric development, roads, railways, bridges, tunnels, large buildings and irrigation, sewerage and harbour and river development. The civil engineer adapts the forces of nature for the use and convenience of mankind. His academic training must include a study of science and of engineering practice. He must combine this with experience and judgment and the knowledge and personality necessary to control large organisations of workers. This profession offers to a young man a considerable variety of types of work, ranging from specialised research and investigations, through routine design and construction work to higher positions which are often largely managerial and organizational in their nature.

The courses in civil engineering are arranged so that all students receive training in the basic principles of mathematics and science, and in the fundamentals of engineering applications of such work to surveying, hydraulics, foundation engineering, structural design, and constructional work in the field. Ancillary subjects from other branches of engineering are also included, such as electrical engineering, mechanical engineering, engineering chemistry and the like. Satisfactory practical experience in industry, concurrent with academic training, is a feature of all courses, and detailed reports of such experience must be submitted by all degree students.

Provision is made in the final year for the student to carry out further work adapted to his special interests by taking two of a range of professional elective subjects.

The elective subjects are arranged so that a detailed study may be made into one or two important phases of civil engineering. The attention of the student may be directed to

71

preliminary investigations necessary for large civil engineering

projects, as considered in hydrology, photogrammetry or geology,

or to the design aspects of civil engineering works, preceding the

actual construction. Alternatively, a study of both the funda

mental behaviour and practical aspects of materials may be

undertaken, as in soil mechanics, concrete technology or

hydraulics. The problems associated with the construction of

projects may be studied in electives dealing with construction

equipment and methods, management and highway engineering.

SCHOOL OF ARCHITECTURE AND BUILDING

ARCHITECTURE DIPLOMA COURSE

This course, which normally requires the basic first year of full-time attendance plus five years' part-time study, provides training supplementing the experience gained by the cadet or junior serving under an architect. The course leads to the Diploma of Associateship of the Sydney Technical College in Architecture (A.S.T.C.). Students in the course are entitled to admission as student members of the Royal Australian Institute of Architects.

The Diploma in Architecture normally entitles the holder to be registered as an architect under the provisions of the Architects Act, 1921 ; to Membership of the Royal Australian Institute of Architects; and to Associate Membership of the Royal Institute of British Architects.

Commencing in 1961 the R.A.I.A. and the R.I.B.1. may require all applicants for Associateship who have completed a fully recognised course to sit for an examination in Professional Practice not less than twelve months after completing their courses.

To be eligible for the receipt of the Diploma in Architecture a student must have had four years' experience in the office of a registered architect, or in a Government Department directly under the control of an architect; such approved employment must be taken concurrently with the course. Some part of this practical experience may be taken in outdoor building.

The first year of the Diploma course requires full-time attendance. However, in special circumstances a student may apply to the Head of the School for permission to take the subjects of the basic first year in two part-time years, outlined below as stages I A and lB.

SCHOOL OF ACCOUNTANCY Both the Pass and Honours curricula leading to the fiward

of the degree of Bachelor of Commerce in Accountancy give a comprehensive and thorough training in accountancy built upon a foundation of general disciplines such as English, philosophy, history and psychology and subjects such as economics and statistics, which are essential to a thorough study in the field of commerce. The study of these more general subjects enables students to see accountancy in proper perspective.

In the specialist field of accountancy; the treatment of accounting and the associated subject of law is particularly comprehensive. Both the Pass and Honours curricula provide the student with an accountancy training more than sufficient to satisfy the existing requirements of professional bodies.

However, in view of the wide range of the accountant's responsibilities to-day, these courses are designed to do more than provide a vocational training. Students are trained to think clearly and critically about accounting concepts and aims. To this end all students are encouraged to undertake original work as a basis for the thesis compulsorily prescribed in the final year, while Honours students must attend a seminar devoted to the discussion of advanced problems in accounting and a critical review of accounting theory and practice.

Within the field of accountancy, in accordance with the special concern of this University with the application of advanced knowledge to industrial and commercial activities, considerable emphasis is placed upon the problems and methods of management accounting. Thus Honours students, in addition to the studies in cost accounting which form part of the Pass course, follow an intensive course in advanced cost accounting during their final year of study. Moreover, the courses in Accounting Control and Statistical Methods II have been carefully planned to complement each other and in doing so give all students a proper understanding of the way in which statistical and accounting techniques can be used together as control devices. By these means all students are provided with an insight into the role of accounting as an aid to management.

Full-time and part-time courses are offered leading to the degree of Bachelor of Commerce in Accountancy and each may be taken at Pass or Honours standard.

85

COURSE XIV-COMMERCE (ACCOUNTANCY)

The full-time course in Accountancy extends over three years for the degree of Bachelor of Commerce (Pass), and over four years for Honours.

!l1

SCHOOL OF ECONOMICS The demand for persons trained in the methods of economic

analysis is considerable. Moreover, it continues to grow. This is not merely because the study of economics gives an understanding of the workings of modern society and develops the habit of rigorous analysis, though both these consequences are of considerable general educational value. It is largely because, in recent years, not only the public service but also commercial, financial and industrial concerns have found it much to their benefit to employ economists in a professional capacity and to encourage their promising young executives to acquire a training in the methods of economic analysis. Both the Pass and Honours curricula of the degree course in economics are designed to meet these needs by making it possible for a specialist training in economics to be combined with the study of such liberal disciplines as philosophy, history, English and psychology, and such essential commercial subjects as accounting, statistics and commercial law.

The study of economics itself is based upon a firm foundation of economic theory which is built up partly in those courses which are taken by all students reading for the degree of Bachelor of Commerce, and partly in the additional specialist courses. In the selection of these specialist courses as much latitude as possible will be given to the individual student. The student's choice, however, must be made from a list of courses offered by the School of Economics. Moreover, it must be approved by the Head of the School.

The application of advanced knowledge in the fields of industry and commerce is a special concern of the University of New South Wales. In accordance with this, particuliH emphasis in the teaching of economics is placed upon the application of the principles of economic analysis to problems of policyboth public and private. Students are encouraged to undertake original investigations as a basis for their compulsory thesis. Moreover, they are required to attend and participate in a seminar in contemporary economic problems. In this way the student acquires an understanding of the methods and limitations of applied economics and receives training in employing the tools of analysis developed by the economic theory.

92

Full-time and part-time courses are offered leading to the degree of Bachelor of Commerce in Economics and each may be taken at Pass or Honours standard.

DEPARTMENT OF ARTS

Courses leading to a degree in Arts are offered at the College. Prior to the passing of the University of New South Wales Act, 1958, these courses led to the award of the B.A. degree of the University of New England. The 1958 Act, however, gave the University power to award its own degrees in this field, and from 1959 students enrolling in Arts courses at Newcastle will proceed to the degree of Bachelor of Arts of the University of New South Wales.

A Degree of Bachelor of Arts (B.A.) is awarded in two grades (Pass and Honours) and what is required of Honours students differs substantially after the first year from what is required of Pass students. The option to undertake a Pass or an Honours course is exercised by the student generally at the beginning of the second academic year. The present regulations require that to secure a Pass B.A. students must have to their credit nine "qualifying courses" obtained in not less than three years; to secure a B.A. with Honours students are required to qualify in eight courses normally taken over a fouryear period. A "Qualifying course" is a course in which a student has passed and which meets certain requirements regarding "groups" and "sequences". Attendance at lectures is compulsory and satisfactory completion of class work (essays, exercises, etc.), is a pre-requisite for candidature at the annual examinations.

SELECTION OF COURSES

In 1959 the following courses preparatory to a degree in Arts will be offered at Newcastle.

English.

French.

German.

Latin.

Greek.

GROUP I

108

Elementary courses in German and in Greek may also be offered if suitably qualified students are forthcoming. These courses only count as "qualifying courses" for degrees if in each case they form the first of a sequence of three.

History. Philosophy. Pure Mathematics.

Economics. Education. Geography. Psychology.

GROUP II

GROUP III

GROUP IV Applied Mathematics. Chemistry. Geology. Physics.

Candidates are required to pass in nine courses chosen from at least two groups: a maximum of three qualifying courses can be chosen from Group IV.

Sequences A major sequence is a subject studied in three consecutive

courses (e.g., English I, English II, English III). A minor sequence is a subject studied in two consecutive

courses (e.g., English I, English II). The nine courses for the degree must comprise one of the

following patterns of sequences: (a) Two major sequences, one minor sequence and one

other subject. (b) Three major sequences (three third-year courses may

be taken in one year only by special permission of the Faculty) .

(c) One major sequence and three minor sequences. (d) Two major sequences and three first year courses. (e) One major sequence, two minor sequences and two

first-year subjects. Degree courses of patterns (c), (d) and (e) require the

approval of the Faculty.

109

Candidates are not permitted to take the courses in EducaHon until they have completed two other qualifying courses including either Philosophy I or Psychology I. Education I may be counted as the second of a sequence of two courses of which the first is either Philosophy I or Psychology I.

Graduates in other Faculties who desire to obtain the degree of Bachelor of Arts (either Pass or Honours) must complete at least seven courses in Arts chosen in accordance with the regulations after special approval has been granted in each individual case.

Candidates desiring to graduate with Honours are subject to slightly different regulations as to the choice of the eight qualifying courses, which are to be taken in a minimum period of four years.

Honours are at present offered in English, French, German, History, Philosophy, Psychology, Economics, Education and Geography.

The Annual Examinations (both Pass and Honours) are held in Newcastle during November and December each year. Notice of intention to sit must be given on the prescribed form and, in the case of students proceeding to a New England degree, accompanied by the examination fee of £3 during the month of June.
