Course learning outcomes

Students who successfully complete this Applied Mathematics major offered at the Swinburne University of Technology will be able to:

articulate the methods of science, explain why current scientific knowledge is both contestable and testable by further inquiry and explain the role and relevance of science in society

exhibit depth and breadth of scientific knowledge by demonstrating well-developed knowledge in at least one science disciplinary area

critically analyse and solve scientific problems by evaluating information from a range of sources, designing and planning an investigation, selecting and applying practical and theoretical techniques for that investigation and collecting, recording, interpreting and drawing conclusions from scientific data

effectively communicate science by presenting information or arguments, to a range of audiences, for a range of purposes using a variety of modes

adopt ownership of their own learning and scientific work by being independent and self-directed learners, working effectively and safely in an individual or team context, demonstrating knowledge of the regulatory framework relevant to the disciplinary area and practising ethical conduct.
