Electives are an opportunity to take a course in a subject you find interesting, expand your skillset, delve further into an area of your core stream that interests you, and/or study an area peripheral to your stream to broaden your knowledge. Please refer to your program charts to see which courses are applicable to you.
Disciplinary Electives - for students who matriculated before T1 2021 only
Electives from other Faculties - for students who matriculated before T1 2021 only

Where a calculator is required for an examination, you will need to provide your own that is a make and model approved by UNSW. Please take a moment to check if your calculator make and model is on the list of Exam Approved Calculators and Computers. It is your responsibility to ensure the calculator is of an approved make and model and to obtain an "Approved" sticker for it from the Student Services Office prior to the examination. Calculators not bearing an official "Approved" sticker will not be allowed into the examination room.
