This unit provides students with knowledge of renewable energy technologies, energy storage systems, power electronics interfaces and associated control, and renewable energy system design and implementation. Students will be able to practice their design skills in renewable energy systems through modelling and implementation. The unit utilises the laboratory resources of the Centre for Renewable...

This unit is wrapped around natural water cycle, and includes background knowledge about the water cycle components in the urban environments. The main objectives of the unit are to develop the knowledge & understanding, skills and attitudes associated with water, wastewater and stormwater distribution/collection and treatment systems, and to assess the environmental impacts of water/wastewater...

This unit explores the dynamics of rigid bodies in three dimensions and also the vibration of systems. The dynamics part of the unit examines the kinematics and kinetics of rigid bodies in three dimensions, dynamic balancing of rotating equipment and gyroscopic motion. The vibrations part of the unit is directed at developing your understanding of the analysis and design of dynamic mechanical...

The most complex and important challenges facing societies today bring together concerns about environmental, political, economic, and cultural sustainability. Guided by an interdisciplinary teaching team with expertise in life sciences, social sciences, and business, you will explore ways that you and others can act as agents of change for sustainability. You will work individually and in...

To deal in a multinational and multicultural context can easily lead to negative and adverse impacts in the present world of shipping. Students completing this unit will acquire the knowledge and skills required by a senior officer to organise and manage the efficient running of a merchant ship, with emphasis in leading and managing multicultural crews in a global environment and maintaining an...

In this unit, you will investigate the global role of marine protected areas (MPAs) in balancing biodiversity conservation and sustainable food production. Using examples worldwide, you will study various MPAs and other types of area-based management - from small fishery closures to large world heritage sites, such as the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park. Students participating in the unit will...
