Students only need to complete BEA109 Introduction to Quantitative Methods or UPP090 Bridging Maths if they have not completed a TCE Maths Applied
or Mathematics Stage 2 (or equivalent).

What’s the difference between BEA109 and UPP090?

In BEA109 Introduction to Quantitative Methods there is a final exam and you will receive a grade in the unit. In UPP090 there is no final examination and although you receive a grade it is a non-award course. There are no fees attached to UPP090.

The benefit of completing the unit BEA109 is that you can count it towards one of the 24 units of your degree whereas as a non-award course UPP090 cannot be counted towards your degree although it does count for 12.5% of a study load for AusStudy/AbStudy or International Student Load purposes.
