The unit builds on knowledge of digital electronics acquired in the earlier years of the course. Students will learn how to apply the principles of digital electronics to construct complex systems such as microprocessor data paths and memory systems. These complex systems will be implemented using hardware definition language, programmed onto field programmable gate arrays (FPGA) and analysed...

This unit focuses on the planning and implementation aspects of cybersecurity. It first introduces cybersecurity frameworks and highlights the modern cybersecurity landscape. It then delves into recent cybersecurity threats and their attack models, along with modern security measures to counter these attacks. Next, the unit discusses incident response processes and enhances students'...

In this unit, you will explore differences and intersections between virtual/conceptual and physical/experiential fields of design. Through practical fieldwork, you will consider human interactions with public and private spaces, objects, and buildings and architecture in the physical world, and compare these to the ways that people interact with mediated, virtual and augmented spaces. You will...

This unit enables students to undertake external studies offered by other universities where the subject matter is not provided locally. Students can choose to study one or two courses, with permission from a course coordinator, to gain credit towards their degree. The unit is primarily for honours and postgraduate students in the science disciplines. ...

The goal of the unit is to develop a thorough understanding of basic econometric methods so that the student can, at the end of this unit:Critically evaluate empirical studies in economics and finance which involve use of simple econometric techniques in estimation and inference;Develop an appreciation of the likely problems in data and know how to deal with them;Obtain a good background for a...

This unit explores the principles, theories and practice of epidemiology. Students are provided with a comprehensive introduction to the collection and interpretation of epidemiological data within the framework of health, health care delivery and human services. The unit content covers the broad areas of disease distribution, study design, basic quantitative measures, causality, interpretation...

In this unit you will receive an introduction to oceanography- the interdisciplinary science of the oceans. You will learn about the physics of the ocean, including the forces that drive the movement of water and aspects important to the coastal oceans including tides and estuaries; the biogeochemistry of the ocean including the role of the ocean in the global carbon cycle and the factors that...

This unit builds skills in industry-relevant mechanical design and simulation techniques. This is done through specific industry focused design projects developing engineering solutions satisfying project briefs and design constraints. The focus is on utilising design, modelling and simulation methods in design of mechanical system components and systems, including for optimization of aspects...

This unit introduces students to the study of political ideas focusing on some of the major ideological frameworks that have and continue to guide political action in the modern era. In the unit, students will consider liberal, conservative, Marxist, fascist, feminist, environmentalist, Islamist and other ideological frameworks. The unit will examine how different theoretical approaches...
