The unit provides students with the fundamental basis of physiology and nutrition, and how they interact to control growth and metabolism, reproduction, osmoregulation and welfare of aquatic animals. The applied relationships between nutrition and feeding behaviour, feed formulation, physiology and biochemistry of aquatic animals is explored and their role in the production of aquaculture...

In this unit you will gain a comprehensive understanding of animal physiology and behaviour with a focus on ectothermic vertebrates that live in wet places. We will learn about the different strategies that aquatic animals employ to breathe, move, regulate, grow, reproduce and survive in changing and/or extreme environments. We will discuss the implications of anthropogenic change and use modern...

Bachelor of Architecture and Built Environments Architecture Technology units focus on establishing key concepts and principles related to the physical facts of architecture and human experience of these facts. At Intermediate level, these units develop focused knowledge and skills at key intersections between materiality and human inhabitation. This unit is part of a suite of four units in the...

As a carbon accountant, your choices about reporting frameworks can greatly impact business’ climate strategies and their ability to reduce emissions. With the global climate policy environment in constant flux, it’s crucial that you have a deep understanding of these factors and how they impact climate accounting and business decision-making. This unit is designed to give you the knowledge...

Toxicology is the study of the harmful effects of chemicals (including drugs) and other agents on living organisms. This on-campus unit introduces you to the key concepts of toxicology, and how, in terms of dose/exposure, toxicology is an extension of pharmacology. Studies in this unit cover general principles of toxicology, pre-clinical and cell-based mechanisms of toxicology, relationships...

This unit will consolidate and build on research skills that have been developed in first units within the Bachelor of Medical Research and will cover the principles of research design and analysis, ethics in medical research, scientific controversy, scientific critique and scientific communication. This unit will allow students to develop these skills in a collaborative and supportive...

In this unit, you will learn about the procedural nature of cyber security and the tools defined by the Open Web Application Security Project (OWASP). You will analyse the effectiveness of threat and vulnerability mitigation through use of contemporary cyber security frameworks. You will be exposed to mitigation strategies, operational controls and countermeasures needed to address various...

Digital innovation is transforming businesses across all sectors of the economy, through implementing new processes or upgrading existing technology. As a result, new business models in Industry 4.0 have emerged. In this unit you will be introduced to key concepts, principles and practices that relate to designing for technology and innovation. You will examine approaches that drive digital...

The unit extends the physics of electrical phenomena when wavelength is small relative to system physical dimensions. The unit introduces an analysis and design, as well as phenomena encountered when wavelength is short relative to the physical dimensions of an electrical system. The student will study signal and current wave propagation along conductors in electrical structures. This study will...
