Course duration referenced below is the effective time taken to complete a course when studied full time (full time equivalent duration). At Charles Sturt the standard calendar refers to 32 points a session over a 2 session calendar year. The Actual Duration is the time taken to complete the course following the prescribed enrolment pattern. A course's actual duration can be affected by the session calendar (number of sessions undertaken per year) and/or mode (full time, part time or mixed) and credit packages which may have been granted upon admission. Therefore, depending on the prescribed enrolment pattern, mode, calendar utilised and credit awarded a course may take less time or more time to complete than the duration noted as full time equivalent years. Students are advised to consult the Enrolment Pattern to determine the actual duration of study.
Full-time: 3 years (or part-time equivalent)
Full-time: 4 years (or part-time equivalent)
Full-time: 4 years (or part-time equivalent)
Full-time: 2 years (or part-time equivalent)
Transfer into the Bachelor of Agricultural Science (Honours)
Students are normally required to hold a minimum GPA of 5.0 in their final two years of full-time equivalent study for admission into the course Honours stream. Students should note that meeting the minimum GPA of 5.0 does not guarantee an Honours place; where there are limited places available due to supervision capacity, project resourcing, or unusually high numbers of applicants, offers can be subject to a competitive ranking process.
