Learning outcomes

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:

employ a systems approach that integrates a detailed technical knowledge of water supply, wastewater treatment and stormwater management with other relevant contextual factors to address a complex problem related to the human-modified water cycle

evaluate and creatively apply advanced engineering methods, techniques, tools and resources to analyse and design solutions to a complex problem related to the human-modified water cycle

select, define, successfully complete and communicate the outcomes from a complex project related to the human-modified water cycle

self-assess conduct and performance as a professional engineer in contributing to the successful completion of a complex project related to the human-modified water cycle.
