Applications of classical mechanics to the motion of large-scale systems are fundamental to the engineering and technology of structures, machines, and devices, from rocket launching to satellite orbiting. This course will also help to understand the flow of liquids and gases, from weather systems to swimming plankton; and why a cup of tea left on a counter always cools down and never heats up. At its core Classical Physics 1 studies the motion of particles, fluids and energy using the concepts of Newtonian mechanics. This course requires an intermediate level of calculus to analyse systems in mechanics, fluid mechanics and thermodynamics. Blended problem-based conceptual learning (lectorials) will be used to gain an understanding of key developments, ideas and theories covered in Classical Physics 1. Blended problem-based hands-on learning (laboratory workshops) will be used to gain an understanding of key experiments, models and analysis covered in Classical Physics 1. Students will complete written reports, oral presentations, and a poster presentation related to the laboratories.

Waves and oscillating systems are fundamental to an understanding of the physical world. Through these concepts we can understand diverse phenomena, from pendulums, musical instruments, and mechanical structures, through tides, plasma waves in space, to the nature of light. Technological applications of these ideas are at the heart of all optical and electrical devices. At its core Classical Physics 2 studies the motion of particles, fields and energy using the concepts of Wave Mechanics. This course requires an intermediate level of calculus for treatment of waves and oscillators, electromagnetism and optics. Blended problem-based conceptual learning (lectorials) will be used to gain an understanding of key developments, ideas and theories covered in Classical Physics 2. Blended problem-based, hands-on learning (laboratory workshops) will be used to gain an understanding of key experiments, models and analysis covered in Classical Physics 2. At the end of this course students will have a deeper understanding of concepts in mechanics, optics and electromagnetism, and be able to solve time-dependent problems in these areas.

Resilience of industry and society is underpinned by infrastructure and management plans that acknowledge, quantify and deal with climate risks. This course will emphasise the practical implications of the impacts of climate variability and change on, for example, water resources management, human health, ecological systems and policy development. Students will (i) critically evaluate the climate variability and climate change science (including the uncertainties and limitations of associated science) and (ii) learn about anticipated impacts of climate variability and change and the various mitigation and adaptive strategies which have been proposed. The course will give students exposure to, and the tools/knowledge to deal with, the climate related problems being faced by industry and society.

The course is designed to enhance students' understanding of human physiology and develop their understanding of physiological responses to single bouts of exercise as well as the adaptations that occur following regular exercise training. Students will participate in practical sessions to gain an understanding of exercise and physical fitness testing.

This course provides integrated learning in human infection and immunity with major focus on the techniques and approaches used to study and understand and diagnose infection- and immune-associated disorders of the human immune system that cause disease. Students will study the pathogenesis of infection-associated and immunological disorders, including bacterial and viral diseases, autoimmune and allergic diseases and inflammatory diseases of the mucosa. Immune deficiency, hypersensitivities, tumour immunology, transplantation and transfusion immune reactions will also be addressed. The course is organised as a series of modules, which include practical labs, lectures and workshops/tutorials. This course prepares students for a laboratory-based career in the study and/or diagnosis of infection- and immune-associated diseases of major importance.

In this advanced course, students will build on the cognitive knowledge and technical skills learnt throughout the program by considering and applying the principles of good business practice and leadership to the delivery of related services across the health sector. This course provides an advanced examination of the foundations of management and leadership theory within a clinical / healthcare context. It defines and explores management theory and characteristics and styles of leadership, and introduces individual, group and organisational structures. The role of the clinician/health scientist in health promotion, and in disaster and crisis management within a global context, is also discussed in this clinical leadership course. Through practical learning, students will explore the fundamentals of managing an organisational unit (team) in developing and implementing health promotion services in regard to procurement of resources (including human resources and clientele) within a business and professional framework.
