The unit aims to provide civil and mechanical engineering students with the tools necessary to systematically select appropriate materials for a particular application. This process will build upon knowledge of fundamental material properties developed by students in KAA113 - Materials Technology to enable students to identify appropriate materials for a given application. In addition to...

The unit aims to provide civil and mechanical engineering students with the tools necessary to systematically select appropriate materials for a particular application. This process will build upon knowledge of fundamental material properties to enable students to identify appropriate materials for a given application. In addition to selecting materials based on their mechanical properties, this...

The purpose of this unit is to introduce physical oceanographic concepts, including the ocean's circulation and physical structure to students with a broad background in university level physics and mathematics. The unit will cover seawater properties, instruments and observing platforms, equations of motion, geostrophic circulation, Ekman layer theory and wind driven circulation, meridional...

This unit will familiarise you with the fundamental concepts of database design and implementation techniques to define, construct and query a database. In this unit you will develop basic skills in data modelling using relational data models and normalisation to ensure data integrity. You will learn how to transform a data model into a relational database design as well as effectively mine data...

In this face-to-face and flexible delivery unit, we develop an understanding of one of the fastest growing types of financial markets - those of derivative securities. They are called derivative securities because they ‘derive’ their value from the value of something else—an underlying right or interest. Underlying rights or interests (or assets in general) include (a) bonds or loans, which...

This unit introduces the skills required for ensemble performance and/or music production. In this unit students experience processes of preparation and performance and/or production through participation in one of a varied set of ensembles. Students are expected to participate in the rehearsal process, experiencing rehearsal strategies for collaborative performance/production. A focus in this...

This unit develops the skills required for ensemble performance and/or music production and continues the work of Ensemble Skills 1 . In this unit students develop processes of preparation and performance and/or production through participation in one of a varied set of ensembles. Students are expected to actively participate in the rehearsal process, identifying chosen rehearsal strategies to...

This unit continues the development of ensemble skills in performance and/or music production. In this unit students consolidate the processes of preparation and performance and/or production through participation in one of a varied set of ensembles. Students are expected to engage in the rehearsal process, identifying and detailing chosen rehearsal strategies to improve collaborative...

This unit consolidates the development of ensemble skills in performance and/or music production. In this unit students refine the processes of preparation and performance and/or production through participation in one of a varied set of ensembles. Students are expected to actively engage in the rehearsal process, identifying and applying strategies chosen throughout semester to improve...

This unit has a strong focus on sustainability, social license, and environmental management related to natural resources; addressing themes such as i) the environmental impacts of mining and associated management challenges; ii) the mineralogical controls on the mobility of metal(loid)s in mine waste and environmental systems (i.e. lakes, wetlands, soils); iii) geophysical characterisation of...
