Learning outcomes and graduate attributes

Unit Learning Outcomes express learning achievement in terms of what a student should know, understand and be able to do on completion of a unit. These outcomes are aligned with the graduate attributes. The unit learning outcomes and graduate attributes are also the basis of evaluating prior learning.

On completion of this unit, students should be able to:

GA1: Intellectual rigour, GA2: Creativity, GA3: Ethical practice, GA4: Knowledge of a discipline, GA5: Lifelong learning, GA6: Communication and social skills, GA7: Cultural competence
Learning outcome count Learning outcome description GA1 GA2 GA3 GA4 GA5 GA6 GA7
1 describe selected disease processes from a biochemical and/or genetic viewpoint
2 employ problem solving, practice and application of genetic and biochemical concepts to clinical scenarios
3 apply developments in gene therapy to the treatment of a wide range of genetic, non-genetic diseases and cancer
4 evaluate and justify biochemical and/or genetic clinical data and interpretations
5 display theoretical and/or practical skills in the use of techniques such as measurement of enzyme activities, spectrophotometry, electrophoresis, and immunoassay
