About International First Year Diploma - Science (X1D:3) (0100205) + Bachelor of Science with Honours - Computer Science (S4E) (030420J)
Program Description
International First Year Diploma - Science (X1D:1) (0100205):
The University of Tasmania International First Year Diploma – Science program has been developed to meet the needs of students who are academically capable of undertaking undergraduate study at university but require extra Academic English language support in their first year. Students will also benefit from a targeted introduction to academic, cultural, social and practical aspects of study at the University of Tasmania which may differ from the diverse international backgrounds they come from.
The Course is designed to allow students to meet the prerequisite knowledge and skills required for direct entry into second year Science undergraduate degrees at the University of Tasmania. Students will study eight units at first year undergraduate level. In addition to three compulsory units (Academic English, Data Handling and Statistics and Understanding Science), students will choose five elective units (two units for a discipline major, two units for a discipline minor and one unit as a degree elective). Four units are studied each semester over two semesters giving a total of eight units.
Learning Outcomes:
- To demonstrate a coherent understanding of a discipline’s first year undergraduate level through identifying, describing and explaining foundational theories, concepts, principles, models and processes.
- To critically apply this understanding to routine and relevant problems and settings and to make subsequent interpretations and recommendations.
- To demonstrate intellectual independence, impartiality and sound judgement within general academic and specific disciplinary ethical and legal frameworks.
- To effectively communicate ideas and findings to specialist and non-specialist audiences in written and oral formats using appropriate conventions and logical development supported with evidence and research.
Bachelor of Science with Honours - Computer Science (S4E):
The course aims to provide:
- advanced training in the major area of the student's pass degree,
- opportunity for training in research, to prepare candidates for further research study, eg MSc and PhD programs and employment in research organisations, and
- in-depth knowledge in a single area of science.
Course Level Intended Learning Outcomes will allow students to:
- Select and apply practical and theoretical techniques to conduct an independent and ethical scientific research project
- Design, implement and critically evaluate a scientific investigation to address a research question
- Communicate scientific ideas and research findings to informed professional audiences, both orally and in a written thesis
Each candidate will conduct research and write a thesis. In addition, candidates maybe required to study and pass one or more advanced level units and undertake other activities which may include the preparation of literature reviews, essays and grant applications and the presentation of seminars.
Each specialisation has a set of core units that must be enrolled in to complete the research project, and some specialisations allow the student to enrol in elective coursework units.
