This unit introduces an important area of private law, and examines the historical development and operation of specific Torts including trespass to person, nuisance, negligence, defamation and relevant intersecting laws. It also considers the relationship between various areas of Tort Law, and other areas of private law. The Unit develops students' confidence in legal research, analysis,...

This unit aims to provide you with an understanding of fundamental concepts in ecology focusing on the ways in which organisms interact with their environment. It will explore this organism-environment interaction at different levels of biological organisation – from individuals to populations to communities to ecosystems. It will also explore how human are impacting the ecology of other...

Administrative unit to be used for recording Honours grades and marks ...

In this unit you will learn how to describe the behaviour of objects and systems using fundamental theories of work, motion, wave systems and electricity. You will apply your understanding of these concepts to solve simplified real-world problems and evaluate the results. You will also practice scientific investigation by designing, conducting and reflecting on your own experiments to...

Railway traffic does not simply travel from one place to another along the same single piece of track. In an urban network of rail lines, trains travel in all sorts of directions depending upon customer demand and availability of rollingstock. As a result, rail tracks are required to cross some tracks, and to merge with or diverge from others. This is particularly true where lines converge in...

Mathematics with Calculus aims to provide students with knowledge and understanding of mathematical methods that can be applied to the sciences and commerce. Typically, students already have a good understanding of Mathematics to take this subject. Students are encouraged gain confidence in developing their language around expressing mathematical ideas in a real-world context. ...

Chemistry aims to (i) promote knowledge and understanding around the central concepts and theories appropriate to the study of chemistry at a pre-tertiary level, (ii) explore the language of chemistry, including symbols and models used to describe, explain and predict chemical behaviour, (iii) develop scientific skills and attitudes, including techniques of operation, recording observations and...

This unit will give you a broad and detailed understanding of the immune system and its functions. The curriculum includes both theoretical and practical sessions focusing on the structure and development of the immune system, antigen presentation and recognition, effector mechanisms involved in pathogen clearance, infectious disease and vaccines, immune disorders such as autoimmune disease,...

This advanced elective in English explores the history of modernism. Students will examine exemplary texts that are representative of key movements in the literature and culture of the modernist era. The writers and texts explored in this unit set the agenda for today's literary practice. Through close textual analysis and research, students will build knowledge and skills for the study of...

In this unit you will be introduced to psychological knowledge which supports an understanding of the way individuals function in groups. You will learn about the major psychological models and theories, and methods used to conduct scientific investigations in psychology. You will also study how to conduct empirical research to examine phenomena such as memory, personality, and group behaviour. ...

This unit aims for students to demonstrate an understanding of sampling, summary statistics and data displays, and to identify and analyse continuous bi-variate data, to use algebraic methods to solve systems of linear equations and to apply methods, concepts and theories to calculate confidence intervals for population parameters. ...

This unit extends the students' knowledge and experience of programming. It introduces dynamic data structures, foundational collection abstract data types, and computational algorithms and techniques. Programming is undertaken in Python and Java and topics include: references, memory management, self-referential data structures, abstract data types and their implementation, and an introduction...

Biomechanics is the study of internal and external forces acting on the human body and the movements produced by these forces. This unit examines basic principles of mechanics applicable to the study of human movement and selected biomechanical techniques available for quantifying human performance. This unit assumes an understanding of the information presented in CXA232 Kinesiology and builds...

This unit provides an in-depth journey into neuroscience, with a particular focus on cellular and systems neuroscience: how neurons work together to create functional circuits. Learning material will cover the structure and function of the nervous system in the context of sensory processing, motor control, learning and memory and disease. Neuroscience builds on a basic familiarity with cell...

This unit provides an introduction to the study of therapeutic agents, probing into the fundamental concepts of therapeutic agent-target interactions and the intricate processes governing therapeutic agent metabolism within the human body. A major part of the unit consists of a detailed account of the pharmacology of therapeutic agents that affect selected organ systems. The content connects the...
