In today's world, the prevalent use of technology and automation have resulted in an explosion in the quantity of data, often referred to as "big data", accumulated by business and by researchers. Data is seen as a critical asset for decision-making. Raw data, however, is of little value. In order to obtain insights from this big data analytical techniques are required to turn the data in the...

KZA161 Biology of Animals introduces students to the scientific study of animals. In this unit you will investigate animal diversity by exploring the evolutionary paths through increasing body complexity, with an emphasis on Australian examples. You will consider the structural and functional characteristics of each group from an evolutionary perspective, with a focus on understanding the...

Biology of Plants is a 1st year core unit for students specialising in plant science, biotechnology, and marine science. In Biology of Plants we introduce you to the origin, diversity, structure and internal processes of plants. In lectures and practical classes, we examine the fine structure of plant cells, the organisation of tissues, structure, development and sexual reproduction in flowering...
