What you'll learn

The aim of this degree is to provide you with knowledge across a range of contexts. The learning is largely practically based, and centres heavily on the principles and concepts relating to early childhood development and learning, as well as curriculum planning for learners aged from birth to eight years of age. The four key components of the curriculum include:

• Primary specialism
• Curriculum studies
• Professional experience
• Education studies

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.

UniSA will build your knowledge in airport and flight operations and prepare you for a global career in aviation management.

Civil and structural engineers are responsible for the infrastructure and resources that keep our cities, towns and rural areas functioning. They focus on the design and construction of buildings, bridges and other structural components of an infrastructure.

In this degree you’ll develop sophisticated skills in engineering research methods and project management which you will use on a major civil engineering design project, with industry representatives as your clients. You will also complete a master thesis.

What you'll learn

You will learn advanced structural and geotechnical civil engineering, developing the skills to:

• apply and synthesise civil engineering theories in solving practical infrastructure problems 

• create and design models to be used in infrastructure design and analysis 

• adapt data analysis methods at an advanced level

• utilise advanced modelling techniques to solve a range of practical problems in civil engineering

• develop advanced skills to communicate with civil engineering and related professional

Construction Managers supervise various design and construction projects from beginning to end. This degree will prepare you to pursue a career in this competitive and highly sought-after field.

What you'll learn

In your first year, you will develop a strong, general foundation in engineering. You’ll then move into your civil engineering major. From the third year onwards you will commence construction management courses, such as Construction Scheduling and Advanced Construction Management.
 

This innovative qualification will provide you with skills and expertise related to information systems in a business context.

Taught by world-class lecturers, researchers and practitioners, you will learn about IT stakeholder engagement, business intelligence and the day-to-day operations of information systems.
