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 focuses on the design of offshore energy infrastructure, exposing students to practical design considerations, issues, and processes. It consolidates and expands on knowledge in mooring system design, fixed and floating offshore structure design, ocean wave mechanics, and resource characterization. Emphasizing the application of this prior knowledge to practical design, the unit will...

This unit provides a comprehensive introduction to the modern econometric theory used in the applied research on macroeconomics and finance. The field of econometrics is broad, and this unit represents an integration of theory, methods and examples. The objectives of this unit are to provide students with a background to enable them to understand applied econometric literature, and to provide...

This unit provides students with knowledge of the fundamental concepts of statical stability and trim of intact and damaged floating structures and the associated practical implications and applications within a regulated environment. This is a unit pivotal to an adequate knowledge within a maritime engineering degree. The unit enables determination of responses of any floating structure to...

Microbiology is the study of microorganisms- how they work and their role in our world. Microorganisms encompass huge diversity and include bacteria, viruses, fungi and single-celled animals and algae. Although not visible to the naked eye, microorganisms have a profound effect on our world. They are fundamental to the basic nutrient and biogeochemical cycles that underpin life on Earth; they...

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...

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...

The Honours program enables students to develop independent research skills, project planning and management skills, high level verbal and written communication skills and subject specific knowledge in their chosen area of specialism. Students will be permitted to enrol in honours in Agricultural Science provided: (a) they have achieved an adequate standard, normally a credit average in group 3...

This unit is intended for students who have no previous knowledge of Latin. The unit is designed to provide a rapid survey of the language sufficient to enable students to read selected passages of adapted and original Latin. This unit is taught in blended mode, involving seminar-format learning and a variety of online activities, including videos, short quizzes, and online games. The language is...

The unit will focus on further study of Latin grammar (morphology and syntax), such as the uses of the moods and tenses of the verb, further uses of the cases, and the introduction of the passive voice. We will also discuss further cultural phenomena (e.g. Cicero, Verres, oratory; the Roman system of government during the late Republic). This unit extends the skills developed in the first...

This subject aims to provide students with an understanding of basic physical concepts in classical mechanics. Understanding of motion, force, energy and momentum is instrumental study of other key areas of physics, such as: mechanics, electric and magnetic fields, waves, atoms and nuclei. This course also aids students in analysing and synthesising information, problem solving and scientific...

This course contains material providing an introduction to Physics, including a knowledge and understanding of Newtonian Mechanics, Electromagnetism and Wave Motion. In combination to EUS009 Phyiscs A, it is broadly aligned with the syllabus material covered in the Senior Secondary Physics 5C course and is designed to enable students to succeed in first year Physics courses. The course will be...
