Applied Photovoltaics
Electrical EngineeringCOURSE CODE
SOLA2540
Can we continue to use fossil fuels for electricity? Think about climate change, global warming, and sustainable economy! Photovoltaic (PV) devices convert sunlight directly to electricity with low levels of greenhouse gas emissions per unit of electricity produced. How affordable is photovoltaic electricity? Learn about how different components of the PV systems work, and how to calculate power generation by a PV system considering effect of factors such as temperature, and efficiency of the components. Using the parameters derived from laboratory exercises and simulations, you will develop a software model of a PV module and use this model to predict electricity generation at given solar irradiation and temperature. As a part of the capstone project, you will develop a PV system design program and use it to design a stand-alone PV system for a real world problem.TERM

Applied Real and Functional Analysis
Mathematics & StatisticsCOURSE CODE
MATH3051
This course provides students in Applied Mathematics with basic knowledge of Real Analysis and Functional Analysis, topics that are particularly useful for the study of many other Applied Mathematics courses. In any area of applied research, methods should not be learnt without understanding their theoretical backgrounds. Understanding the theory behind the methods requires some abstract mathematics, and this forms the contents of this course.TERM

Architectural Composition and Modelling
ArchitectureCOURSE CODE
DPDE1005
This course builds on capabilities and skills from DPDE1002 - Communication in the Built Environment to develop a further range of communication skills specific to Design, Architecture and Computational Design. You will explore intermediate analogue and intermediate-advanced digital representation techniques in a suite of software with a digital and physical output. Emphasis will be placed on an iterative, theoretical and practical approach to making as a means of spatial exploration, research and articulation of design environments.TERM

Architectural Design Studio 1
ArchitectureCOURSE CODE
ARCH1101
Architectural Design Studio 1 introduces you to the disciplinary foundations for architectural design. Through small scale and experimental design projects, you will explore the main concepts and activities of architectural design. There is a focus on making and thinking about human inhabitation including space, form, order, structure, material, scale and proportion. You will learn manual and digital representational techniques as primary design communication tools, and explore the relationship between plan, section, elevation and three-dimensional forms.TERM

Architectural Design Studio 2
ArchitectureCOURSE CODE
ARCH1102
In this course, you will learn how architectural space is configured and refined for use through the study of selected canonical buildings in their conceptualisation, architectural thematisation, spatial figuration, as well as the logic of material and structural expression. Site condition and material limits are introduced to the design process. The architectural relations between interior and exterior are established according to the use, circulation and room types; the development of the project within constraints and possibilities of construction techniques; and the site conditions. You will gain skills in design aided by basic digital fabrication.TERM

Architectural Design Studio 3
ArchitectureCOURSE CODE
ARCH1201
Architectural Design Studio 3 develops your understanding of the architectural design process through a residential project of moderate programmatic, spatial, material and environmental complexity and its integration with the urban context. You will investigate design strategies for thermal comfort and low carbon living through an interpretive analysis of project site conditions, local climate and architectural precedents. You will learn how to articulate your ideas with a clear conceptual, schematic and developed design proposal.TERM

Michigan State University
"Growing up, I was a huge fan of Steve Irwin, the Crocodile Hunter. He inspired me a lot to get into my major and study wildlife. Australia is about as wild as it gets. Right now, I am living the best life."
Gabby
University of Florida
“Studying abroad with Hop has truly been the best decision I have ever made. In a short amount of time, I have explored the lively rainforests and the shimmering Great Barrier Reef. I've climbed mountains, sat at the edge of waterfalls, and even surfed the waves of the Gold Coast. I've met so many new friends from different backgrounds who unite on the same goal of discovering and learning, and I couldn’t have done that without Hop.”
