Mathematics, equipped with the powerful tools logic and reasoning, is the key ingredient that enriches all areas of education. A sound knowledge in mathematics not only opens up numerous career options, but also helps to understand the world in which one operates. The unit aims to provide the necessary basic knowledge that is essential to undertake tertiary studies, which require pre-tertiary...

This unit and KRA709 are the thesis components of the Master of Chemistry.  In this unit, as part of the thesis segment for the Master of Chemistry, students will craft a research thesis built upon the experimental findings and analyses from KRA706 (Chemistry Research Design and Planning) and KRA707 (Chemistry Research Analysis and Presentation). This thesis will undergo evaluation, culminating...

Design thinking draws on creative, iterative and collaborative approaches to problem-solving, including exploration of potential solutions though idea generation, rapid prototyping and testing. While conventional approaches to problem-solving often rely on the application of highly structured methodologies and process controls, design thinking encourages incorporation of diverse perspectives,...

This unit explores the methods, opportunities and challenges that organisations experience when planning and evaluating ICT. The introduction of new ICT requires an understanding of how to actively manage change to ensure successful implementation and this unit will include tools and techniques to manage that change. This unit will focus on benefits realisation for the justification and...

In this unit you will integrate and apply learning from previous clinical laboratory medicine units, about the diagnosis and management of complex diseases. A whole of laboratory approach is used to explain the relationship between pathology results and the pathology/pathophysiology of complex diseases. Furthermore, you will gain insight into pathology laboratory organisation, management, and...
