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 perform a thermodynamic analysis of energy production processes to predict energy requirement, outputs and system efficiencies, and explain the environmental impacts
2 evaluate the feasibility of a selected renewable energy technology
3 work successfully, on a typical engineering problem, within a team, and learn from the other team members
4 understanding environmental impact of different energy options
5 undertake guided self-learning.
