Master of Teaching in Secondary

at University of South Australia - Mawson Lakes Campus Australia

You will undertake general studies in aviation including an introduction to human factors and safety management systems. You will do Flight Training Theory 1 and Commercial Pilot Theory, taught by instructors from the flight training provider. These courses prepare you for CASA Commercial Pilot Licence theory examinations.

As your studies progress you will explore more advanced and theoretical areas including meteorology, law, human factors, and aspects of the flight and performance of large aircraft systems. You will also study communication and aviation management. Your technical studies will include aerodynamics, heavy aircraft systems, navigation, and risk and safety management.

What you'll learn

This is a very flexible degree. You can select two majors from the following fields:

• Applied physics: allows you to pursue in-depth studies in advanced materials, computational physics and medical health physics
• Biology for Science: includes plant and animal biology, cell biology, physiology, environmental biology, biochemistry and introductory biotechnology
• Chemistry for Science: offers studies in both physical and inorganic chemistry
• Ecosystem sciences: looks at environmental sciences and policy including the contemporary concepts of ecosystem management and sustainable development that link natural and social systems, providing a solid foundation in natural sciences and field research techniques.
• Geoscience and Biogeochemistry: combines the study of chemical, physical, geological and biological processes that shape the natural environment, with an emphasis on problems such as climate change, environmental pollution and landscape modification. Investigate the Earth System and the dynamic interactions that govern global change from the microscopic to the macroscopic scale.
• Mathematics and statistics: investigates core studies in applied mathematics, statistics and optimisation.
• Computer Science: develops knowledge of the fundamentals and practice of computing, including studies in programming, data structures, operating systems, computer systems organisation, logic and computational mathematics.

The Graduate Diploma in Environmental Science has been developed in response to industry demand. Along with the graduate certificate and master, it has been designed to meet the growing demand for skilled resource management practitioners.

What you'll learn

You will develop the skills to understand and manage resources within a sustainability framework. Your courses will cover areas such as ecological economics, community partnerships and natural resource management. You will also take three advanced, sustainability-focused electives.
 

This one year degree is for students who have completed a bachelor degree in a relevant field of science, technology, engineering, environmental science or health with a high level of academic achievement. This degree will train you to undertake research and help you to develop higher level scientific and problem-solving skills.

What you'll learn

Over the course of the year you will study courses in research methods, principles and ethics, as well as research project preparation. You will complete a research project that involves laboratory and/or field work, data collection and analysis, interpretation of your results in the context of current scientific literature, preparation of an Honours thesis and presentation of a final seminar to academics, student peers and relevant industry and government stakeholders.

You will also study advanced topics related to your field of study. This could include topics such as:

• environmental chemistry and pollution monitoring
• earth sciences including isotope geochemistry
• ecology including remnant habitats and climate refugia, environmental and park management
• surface chemistry
• physics and photonics

Make your dreams of becoming a pilot reality with an innovative aviation degree. The Bachelor of Aviation (Flight) is the starting point for all international students wanting to fly.

What you'll learn

You will undertake general studies in aviation including an introduction to human factors and safety management systems. You will do Flight Training Theory 1 and 2, taught by instructors from the flight training provider. These courses prepare you for CASA Commercial Pilot Licence theory examinations.

As your studies progress, you will explore more advanced and theoretical areas including meteorology, law, human factors and aspects of the flight and performance of large aircraft systems. You will also study communication and aviation management. Your technical studies will include aerodynamics, heavy aircraft systems, navigation and risk and safety management.

Flight Experience is part of this degree. If you don’t take up Flight Experience, this course will be replaced by two electives.

Electrical engineers are needed wherever electrically powered tools, devices or systems need to be designed, manufactured or maintained. These systems include those that:

• generate, transmit or distribute electrical energy
• acquire, process or deliver information, and
• automate processes and deliver services.

What you'll learn

In your first year you will develop a strong, general foundation in engineering including computer programming, applied mathematics and physics. As your studies progress, you will learn about analog electronics, digital electronics, software development, embedded systems, computer networking, electrical machines, signal processing, robotics, control systems, power systems and renewable energy, and telecommunications.

In this degree you will address today’s scientific issues and explore how humans interact with the environment, how we can manage it sustainably, and how we can better influence positive attitudes to bring about a better future for all.

What you'll learn

Your learning will cover biology, ecology, geography, earth and soil science, water and coasts, pollution monitoring, conservation, ecotourism and social sciences. To develop strong skills in an area that interests you, you can select from a range of environmental electives in second and third year to tailor your degree, whilst still maintaining a broad, comprehensive training in environmental sciences. All students will obtain a minor in Geographical Information Systems (GIS) and, depending on elective choices, another minor in Community Engagement and majors in Ecology and Conservation or Environmental Quality and Earth Sciences.

This innovative Masters degree will give you a broad knowledge of IT disciplines and a solid foundation in business practices.

Taught by world-class lecturers, researchers and practitioners, you’ll learn about IT stakeholder engagement, business intelligence, business systems analysis and modelling, and the day-to-day operation of information systems.

What you Learn

You will study an industry relevant blend of business, IT and information systems course to develop a solid cross-disciplinary base of skills required for business analyst roles.

Towards the end of your study you’ll complete a major project where you’ll work in a structured project team, getting practical experience in contemporary IT techniques and practices.

What you'll learn

In the Graduate Diploma in Data Science you will learn current techniques in data science, and how to apply this knowledge professionally. You will develop:

• cognitive skills to review, analyse, consolidate and synthesise knowledge and identify and provide solutions to complex problems in data science

• cognitive skills to think critically and to generate and evaluate complex ideas

• specialised technical and creative skills in data science

• communication skills to demonstrate an understanding of theoretical concepts

• communication skills to transfer complex knowledge and ideas to a variety of audiences

The Graduate Diploma in Aviation is a highly disciplined, technical flight training program at Parafield Airport. It is delivered in conjunction with the professional flight instructors at Flight Training Adelaide, our industry partner.

What you'll Learn

This diploma comprises seven courses delivered with our industry partner Flight Training Adelaide. You will study them at the same time as the Bachelor of Aviation (Pilot).

As part of this diploma you will sit the Civil Aviation Safety Authority (CASA) theory exams. Your studies in the Bachelor of Aviation (Pilot) will help prepare you for these exams.

When you have developed the flight skills and knowledge – and passed the CASA theory exams – you can test for your Commercial Pilot Licence (CPL) and Command Instrument Rating (CIR) flight.
