Building, engineering & science pathways
If you don’t yet meet the entry requirements to get into your chosen building, engineering or science course, we'll get you there with our study pathways.
'Pathways' let you build on your learning and progress between study levels – often with credit towards a qualification. They can link courses with similar learning, or they may help you to access tertiary education by teaching you foundational study skills.

By completing a pathway course, and meeting additional entry requirements, you will be guaranteed entry in the 'dream course' listed here.
If no credit points are listed, the course guarantees entry only.
Most subjects (units) are equal to 12 credit points. If you're studying full time, you'll generally complete a total of 8 units per year – that's four units in semester one and four in semester two.
For pathways that grant credit, generally, credit is granted is as follows (for full-time study):
- one unit (4 weeks) = 12 credit points
- 4 units (six months) = 48 credit points
- 8 units (one year) = 96 credit points
- 12 units (1.5 years) = 144 credit points
