INSTITUTION CONTACT DETAILS.................................................................................................................................................... inside back cover How To Use This Book to qualify for University, TAFE or College entry Follow these steps before you choose your Year 11 and Year 12 subjects: 1. USE Section One to find out more about: the Senior Education Profile (SEP); the importance of your Overall Position (OP); Field Positions (FPs); the Queensland Core Skills (QCS) Test; and the tertiary selection process in general. 2. REFER to Section Two to investigate your Areas of Interest. Decide which areas most interest you and which you would like to pursue as a career. 3. USE Section Three to check out the Tertiary Courses that relate to your Area of Interest. These are listed by institution. 4. CHECK Section Three for the Course Entry Requirements to the courses that interest you. This section has information about subject prerequisites, other requirements such as portfolios and auditions, and Field Positions, where relevant, for each course. INTRODUCTION TO TERTIARY STUDY - A SMALL STEP INTO A BIG FUTURE Interest Areas The kind of planning needed to make successful subject choices and career decisions takes time, thought and research into the wide range of options available. One of the factors that will help in your Senior subject decision-making is that, generally, courses in the same area or field of study have the same or similar entry requirements. 3 Subject choice is a personal decision that requires you to think carefully about what you are good at and what genuinely interests you. Take time to think about possible careers and use the people around you, including parents, teachers and other advisers and experts such as guidance officers or counsellors to discuss your interests, concerns and future plans. Course Entry Requirements Section 3 of the book is set out as a table, on an institution-by-institution basis, with each course entry detailing the duration of the course, the entry requirements for that course, and the Field Positions that will be used if information in addition to the Overall Position is required. Spend some time considering the wide range of courses available and the institutions offering them. Take the time to find out not only the requirements for admission to courses but also the locations of the institutions, as attendance at some institutions may involve extensive travel or living away from home. The Tertiary Prerequisites Book Tertiary Prerequisites is written to help you, and the people who can advise you, make your road towards tertiary study easier, more realistic, and ultimately more effective. The book is a great resource that will assist you in exploring more than 1600 courses available through QTAC’s participating institutions. Courses available through QTAC range from certificate courses that may take less than a year to complete, to degree courses that may take three, four or five years to complete. The types of courses available are also very different in terms of how much practical or theoretical study is involved. Usually the shorter courses are more ‘handson’‚ while the longer courses tend to involve a greater combination of both theory and practice. Tertiary Prerequisites provides an overview of the courses that institutions expect to be available in 2013 and, most importantly, it provides a detailed ‘map’ of the requirements for entry to those courses. Even though 2013 seems a lifetime away right now, most of you will finish Year 12 in 2012 and will be applying in September that year for courses commencing in 2013. What all this comes down to, is that you will need to consider the areas of tertiary study that appeal to you, identify the requirements for entry to those courses, and then plan your Senior years with this in mind. Aside from Queensland Year 10 students, the book will also be useful to prospective applicants from all over Australia who may be contemplating tertiary study in Queensland or northern New South Wales in 2013. While the book provides a very good guide to the courses expected to be available in 2013, new courses will inevitably be added and some will be withdrawn. The QTAC Guide to Tertiary Courses and the QTAC website www.qtac.edu.au will keep you informed about the latest choices available and provide course outlines and other relevant information. The QTAC Guide is provided to all Queensland students in year 12 and is also available for purchase from QTAC or newsagencies throughout Queensland and northern New South Wales. The course entry requirements (prerequisites) listed in this book are usually subjects studied in Years 11 and 12 and are linked to the exit assessment levels required at the end of your Senior study. The book also gives other requirements, such as portfolio and audition requirements, that you may need to present when you apply. You will also note that in some cases subjects are listed as assumed knowledge or recommended study. These categories indicate that undertaking such subjects in Years 11 and 12 would be beneficial, especially in the case of assumed knowledge, but are not essential for admission to that course. See page 4, under the heading ‘Choosing Senior Subjects’ for definitions of assumed knowledge and recommended study. Taking the Step Once you have taken time to consider your goals, your subject selection will set you on the path to achieving those goals. Like any journey, there will be unexpected bridges to cross, and at these points you will need to pause and reflect on your path so far and, if necessary, modify your goals. The point to remember, though, is that in most cases the bridges can be crossed. So remain calm and rest assured that once you have chosen your course of study there is always a way of getting there. APPLYING FOR TERTIARY STUDY IN 2013 If you plan to go on to tertiary study at any of the institutions listed in section 3 you will apply through QTAC for a place. Applications can be submitted from 1 July in the year you are studying Year 12 and are made via QTAC’s Twelve to Tertiary online application at www.qtac.edu.au. You can list up to six different courses on your application including courses starting in first or second semester 2013. Having several course preferences means you can apply for a number of suitable courses and have back-up options if you don’t get your first choice. Read the QTAC Guide to Tertiary Courses or visit the QTAC website www.qtac.edu.au for more information about applying closer to the time. Introduction As you take your first classes in semester two, you probably have some general idea of what kind of career you might like to pursue or what interests you might like to follow after your secondary schooling is over. If your interests call for additional education, either at university, TAFE or college level, you will need to make some decisions now about the subjects in Years 11 and 12 which will help you get into the courses that allow you to follow your goals and dreams. An important activity in planning your future is considering what you are interested in. This may be easier than identifying a specific course that is ‘right for you’. Tertiary Prerequisites directs you to your areas of interest, outlines some of the career opportunities, and shows you what courses are available at QTAC’s participating institutions. The 11 interest areas are: Built Environment and Design; Business and Tourism; Creative and Performing Arts; Education; Engineering and Technology; Health and Recreation; Humanities and Social Sciences; Information Technology; Law; Primary Industries and Environment; and Sciences. SECTION 1 You are now on the home run to the end of Year 10. It is a time to look ahead seriously and choose your Senior subjects with future study and career in mind. THE SENIOR EDUCATION PROFILE SECTION 1 Students may undertake a range of studies in their senior phase of learning. All certification relating to Senior schooling is determined by the Queensland Studies Authority (QSA). Introduction 4 Queensland Studies Authority Address: 154 Melbourne Street, South Brisbane Qld Postal address: PO Box 307, Spring Hill Qld 4004 Phone: (07) 3864 0299; Fax: (07) 3221 2553 Email: [email protected] Website: www.qsa.qld.edu.au During their Senior phase of learning, students may undertake: • Authority subjects – an area of learning with an approved QSA syllabus and school work program and QSA moderation procedures. (The exit levels of achievement in section 3 of this book are for Authority subjects, eg English (4,SA), unless otherwise stated) • Authority-registered subjects • Vocational Education and Training (VET) certificate studies • school based apprenticeships and traineeships • tailored training programs • international learning • preparatory, enrichment and advanced courses recognised by QSA Year 12 Certification Students completing Year 12 may receive one or more of the following: • Senior Statement – records all learning in the student’s learning account and the results achieved during the Senior phase of learning including a result for the QCS Test if applicable • QCE - Queensland Certificate of Education – confirms a significant amount of learning at a set standard, including literacy and numeracy requirements • QCIA - Queensland Certificate of Individual Achievement – confirms learning outcomes for special needs students on individualised learning programs • VET Certificate - vocational education and training certificate – certifies competence in a vocational education and training course or qualification level • Tertiary Entrance Statement – issued by QSA to OP-eligible students, it reports a student’s OP in one of 25 bands from one, the highest, through to 25. The Tertiary Entrance Statement also reports up to five Field Positions (FPs) The Overall Position (OP) is a statewide rank order of students based on their achievement in Authority subjects. It shows how well an individual student performed in their Senior studies when compared with the performance of all other OP-eligible students in the state. A student’s OP, together with subject prerequisites or other requirements such as portfolios and interviews, is very important in determining which tertiary course they could gain entry to. Field Positions (FPs) show a student’s rank order position (on a one to 10 scale, with one being the highest) based on achievement in Authority subjects. These fields identify areas of study that emphasise particular knowledge and skills. FPs are determined only for OP-eligible students and only for the fields for which their subject choices qualify them. The five Field Positions are: Field A = Extended written expression involving complex analysis and synthesis of ideas. Field B = Short written communication involving reading, comprehension and expression in English or a foreign language. Field C = Basic numeracy involving simple calculations and graphical and tabular interpretation. Field D = Solving complex problems involving mathematical symbols and abstractions. Field E = substantial practical performance involving physical or creative arts or expressive skills. Different subjects contribute different weight to the different fields. For example, Maths B and Maths C contribute more highly to Fields C and D than English or History. On the other hand, English and History contribute more highly to Fields A and B than Maths B or Maths C. FPs are used to provide more information when considering two or more applicants with the same OP at the cut-off point for a course. This additional information is used to choose between students for a very small number of courses. For entry into semester 1 2010, only 12 courses (less than one percent) required Field Positions to be used. OP Ineligible Studies If you do not qualify for an OP you will be considered for tertiary entrance on the basis of your academic achievements and your results in the QCS Test, if you sit it, or other qualifications such as certificate study. For more information on how OP Ineligible Students are assessed for tertiary study see page 6. CHOOSING SENIOR SUBJECTS If you intend going on to tertiary study you should be aware that the main selection criteria are your Overall Position or QTAC selection rank (for OP ineligible students), and successful completion of the minimum entry requirements for a course. Minimum entry requirements are usually prerequisite subjects. Subject Prerequisites Subject prerequisites are the subjects you study in Year 11 and Year 12 that are stated by universities, TAFE and colleges in section 3 of this book as necessary for you to complete at the required level to qualify for entry to particular courses. Subject prerequisites are expressed as minimum achievement levels in specific senior subjects. For example, English (4,SA) indicates that the Queensland Studies Authority subject English (or equivalent) must have been studied over four semesters (ie Years 11 and 12) and an overall Exit Assessment of Sound Achievement or better obtained. Assumed Knowledge Assumed knowledge is the minimum level of achievement in a Senior subject (or equivalent) considered necessary for successful first year tertiary study. Students lacking the assumed level of knowledge are not prevented from enrolling; however, they may be disadvantaged unless they undertake recommended bridging, preparatory or appropriate introductory subjects prior to or during their first year of study. Further information is available from the Admissions Office of the institution concerned. Recommended Study This applies to subjects recommended in order to undertake a course successfully. These subjects are not entry requirements and do not affect applicant selection. Subject Choice In choosing your Year 11 and 12 subjects we strongly advise that you: • select prerequisite, assumed and recommended subjects for the tertiary courses in which you are interested; and • choose the remainder of your Senior subjects by what you do best and what you prefer to do. In this way you are likely to achieve your best possible results. Your parents, guidance officers/school counsellors or other school staff can also help you with choosing Senior subjects. OP Eligible Students To be considered for admission based on an Overall Position you must have: • met the minimum entry requirements; and • obtained an Overall Position (OP) Step A If you have satisfied the minimum entry requirements and obtained an OP, you are considered for entry to your selected tertiary course in order of OP — remember that OP band 1 is the highest and will therefore be considered before OP band 2, and so on. All applicants who fall into an OP band above the minimum cut-off point for a particular course will be offered a place in that course (see the ‘Selection example’ below). OP cut-offs are not predetermined and vary depending on the number of applicants for a course, the applicants OPs/ QTAC selection ranks and the number of places available in the course. See ‘OP cut-offs explanatory note’ on this page for more information. Step B If the number of places in a course dictates that not all applicants within an OP band can be made an offer, as the ‘Selection example’ below shows, then selection within the OP will be based on Field Positions. See ‘Use of Field Positions’ in the next column. Step C In rare cases, even after Field Positions have been considered, it can happen that more information is needed to differentiate between students with the same OP applying to courses that are highly competitive. In these instances a further step may be used. Depending on the institution, this could include using any of the following: level of achievement in prerequisite subjects; school reports or additional information supplied by the applicant; the Australian Tertiary Admission Rank (previously known as Interstate Transfer Index); or individual results from the Queensland Core Skills Test. Selection example The table below is a fictional example presenting students who want to study Law at ‘Roma University’. There are 150 places available (that is the Course Quota) and 225 students have applied for places in the course. Twenty-five applicants have an OP 1, 100 have an OP 2, and a further 100 have an OP 3. Based on this scenario, the table shows how students are actually selected. It also shows at what point, and how, Field Positions become important in selecting students to courses. Number of applicants within an OP band Number of offers made Course quota = 150 OP 1 25 applicants 25 offers made Cumulative total = 25 OP 2 100 applicants 100 offers made Cumulative total = 125 25 offers made based on applicants' field positions Cumulative total = 150 — quota filled OP 3 100 applicants. This is where Field Positions are used in selection, see 'Use of Field Positions' following Total applicants = 225 75 applicants with OP 3 do not receive an offer Total offers = 150 Any guide to OP cut-offs you may use, such as that on the QTAC website www.qtac.edu.au or in the QTAC Guide to Tertiary Courses remains a guide only, as actual cut-offs can only be worked out ‘on the day’. For example, a course that shows a past cut-off of OP 3, could end up being ‘cut off ’ at OP 2 in the year that you apply, depending on the number of students applying for the course, the standard of their OP/ QTAC selection rank, and the number of places available in the course. It can be seen from this that it is impossible to predict the OP cut-offs until all the applications for a particular course have been lodged and processed — and this only occurs well into the application period. It is also important to remember that the cut-off only reflects the past minimum standard and that most students entering the course received higher OPs than the minimum. Variables used in calculating the cut-off for each course: Demand — the number applying for the course Quality — the quality of those applicants (that is their OP or QTAC selection rank) Supply — the number of places available for the course Use of Field Positions In section 3 ‘Course Entry Requirements’, you will notice that the final two columns in the table are headed: Fields used for Selection within OP. These columns indicate which Field Positions, will be used for selection to each course if the number of applicants in the OP cutoff band is too large for all candidates to be selected. See page 4 for a description of each Field Position. The first of the two Field Position columns shows the Primary, that is the first, field to be used for ‘finer’ selection of candidates with the same OPs. The second column, showing the Secondary field, will be used only if the first field is not fine enough (see examples below). Example 1. Fields used for Selection within OP Primary Secondary B C Using example 1, applicants with a Field Position of 1 in Field B will be selected before those with a Field Position of 2 in Field B, and so on. If looking at the Primary field does not prove to be fine enough then your results in the Secondary column, in this case Field C, will be considered next. Once again, a Field Position of 1 in Field C will be considered before a Field Position of 2 in Field C, and so on. In example 2, two possible fields (Field A or B) are used as alternative Primary selectors. And in this case, for someone who has a Field Position Example 2. Primary Secondary A or B C of 1 in Field A and a Field Position of 2 in B, the Primary selector used would be Field A, that is, the better of the two. If this is not fine enough, then the Secondary field, in this case C, would be used. Remember that applicants who fall into higher OP bands, that is in OP bands above the minimum cut-off for a particular course, will be made offers regardless of their results in the relevant Field Positions, as long as they have met the minimum entry requirements. SECTION 1 Selection for tertiary study, except in some cases where alternative selection methods are used (such as interview or audition), is based on your academic results as shown in the Student Education Profile. OP Cut-Offs - Explanatory Note 5 Introduction HOW YOU ARE SELECTED FOR TERTIARY STUDY SECTION 1 Introduction 6 OP Ineligible Students Other Roads to Tertiary Study Students who complete Year 12 but do not qualify for an OP are still eligible to apply through QTAC for courses. OP ineligible students compete for places on a similar basis to OP eligible students. That is, they must meet the minimum entry requirements before being considered for a place based on merit. For OP ineligible students, merit is measured by their OP Ineligible QTAC selection rank (as opposed to an OP). Courses not requiring OPs/QTAC selection ranks A QTAC selection rank is allocated on the basis of results in their best 20 semester units of Authority and Authority-registered subjects and VET units of competency/modules as recorded on their Senior Statement and, if available, their results in the Qld Core Skills (QCS) Test. A poor result in the QCS does not have a negative effect on a student’s selection rank, it will only be used to moderate the rank upwards. QTAC selection ranks range from 1 (lowest) to 99 (highest). QTAC has developed a table that provides comparisons between OPs and QTAC selection ranks. This allows OP eligible and ineligible students to compete for tertiary study places on an equitable basis. Unlike OP eligible students, if differentiation between applicants is needed at the cut-off point, Field Positions are NOT considered for OP ineligible students. OP bands usually cover multiple selection ranks, eg in 2009, OP 12 was comparable to a QTAC selection rank between 77 – 79, therefore differentiation can usually be obtained by selection rank, eg applicants with a selection rank of 79 are selected before applicants with a selection rank of 78, etc. Points to note: • Undertaking an OP ineligible Senior secondary school program may make it difficult and in some cases impossible to achieve the high ranks necessary for entry to very competitive tertiary courses. • Students completing Year 12 with fewer than 20 semester units of Authority and Authority-registered subjects and VET units of competency/modules will still be eligible for a QTAC selection rank but it will be less competitive than if they had completed 20 units. • Students not undertaking the standard tertiary pathway, ie being eligible for an Overall Position, may not be considered for tertiary entry interstate and should contact the relevant institution. For some courses, tertiary institutions may not use an applicant’s OP or QTAC selection rank in the determination of a tertiary offer. Alternatively, an applicant may be selected on the basis of a portfolio of work, audition, interview, test result, or other requirement listed in Section 3 of this book. This scenario usually occurs within skills-based courses such as art, music, and dance. Applicants with qualifications in addition to OP/OP ineligible study Some Year 12 students have qualifications in addition to Senior results that can be used in the assessment of their application. Such qualifications include AQF Certificate III or IV, music qualifications like AMEB Grade 7, or study undertaken at a tertiary institution. These qualifications will be assessed according to tertiary institution policies and may give the student a more competitive QTAC selection rank than awarded for their Senior study. Various Year 12 pathways to tertiary study are shown in the diagram below. Special admissions schemes Most institutions also have admissions schemes to assist applicants in special circumstances gain entry to tertiary courses. For example, there are access and equity schemes, regional preference schemes, and Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander schemes. For more information, visit the QTAC website or contact the institution directly. Subject bonus schemes Some institutions have schemes where applicants receive bonus ranks if they passed specified subjects at school, such as languages other than English or Maths C. For more information on these schemes visit the QTAC website or contact the institutions directly. Special consideration of education disadvantage Applicants who believe they have suffered disadvantage in their academic performance for reasons beyond their control (eg relating to equality of opportunity, disability and health, or on compassionate grounds) may request special consideration in their QTAC application. Should these circumstances arise, please speak with your school guidance officer in the first instance as they may be able to provide assistance while you are still studying. YEAR 12 PATHWAYS The diagram below shows how different qualifications/pathways can lead to tertiary study Pathway to tertiary study Amanda is a Year 12 student eligible for an OP Jack is a Year 12 student who is OP ineligible Amy is a Year 12 student who is not eligible for an OP but has completed other qualifications Qualifications completed OP/QTAC selection rank awarded based on the qualification* Senior Statement No rank awarded Tertiary Entrance Statement OP8 (comparable to a rank of 87 in 2009) QCE No rank awarded AMEB Grade 7 Certificate 84 Certificate III 68 Senior Statement (OP Ineligible) 76 QCE No rank awarded Certificate III 68 Senior Statement (OP Ineligible) 58 QCE No rank awarded AMEB Associateship 85 Certificate II No rank awarded Traineeship No rank awarded Tertiary place allocated The QTAC selection rank allows different qualifications to be compared. For most courses, QTAC uses these ranks (and whether minimum entry requirements have been met) to allocate course places to applicants. Where an applicant has multiple ranks, institution policy dictates which rank is used to allocate a tertiary place - for Year 12 students, it is generally the highest rank. * QTAC assigns a QTAC selection rank to a qualification based on a variety of schedules and individual tertiary institution rules. Not all qualifications are eligible for a rank and ranks for qualifications can change. Multiple ranks are not combined to give a greater score. ADMISSIONS STATISTICS Public Universities Public higher education providers offer Commonwealth Supported Places (CSP) to Australian and New Zealand citizens and holders of a permanent visa. The Australian Government contributes towards course costs for these students, and students pay a ‘student contribution’. While student contributions vary between providers and courses, these must be within a range set by the government (see table below). Student contributions per year Band Student contribution range for 2010* National Priorities mathematics, statistics, science $0 to $4249 Band 1 humanities, behavioural science, social studies, foreign languages, visual and performing arts, education, nursing $0 to $5310 Band 2 computing, built environment, health, engineering, surveying, agriculture $0 to $7567 Band 3 law, dentistry, medicine, veterinary science, accounting, administration, economics, commerce $0 to $8859 * Costs are indicative of band level only and will depend on the individual subjects/electives chosen. The student contributions shown are for first year full-time students. Student contributions are indexed each year according to movements in the Consumer Price Index. The 2013 indicative first year costs will be available late in 2012 from the Department of Education, Employment and Workplace Relations website www.goingtouni.gov.au or on institution websites. TAFE Queensland and Institutes of Technology Tuition fees vary between institutes and programs. All students are required to contribute towards the cost of their program, however, some programs attract a government subsidy. VET FEE-HELP may be available. FEE-HELP is available for Southbank Institute of Technology. Private Providers Fees for non government institutions vary between providers and generally are not subsidised by the government. FEE-HELP is available for some courses. International Students International students generally pay different study costs from domestic students. Contact the international centre of the institution for information. Financial Assistance Financial assistance may be available through income support from Centrelink, scholarships, or through government loans (such as HECSHELP for Commonwealth supported places, FEE-HELP for selected private provider courses and VET FEE-HELP for eligible students at approved VET providers). For entry to tertiary courses in 2010, QTAC received 22,231 applications from students who completed Queensland Year 12 in 2009. Of these, 19,985 applications were from students with an OP. Of these, 17,510 (87.6%) gained entry to university courses, 1314 (6.6%) to TAFE courses and 320 (1.6%) to college courses. Also for entry to courses in 2010, QTAC received 2246 applications from students without an OP. Of these, 934 (41.6%) gained entry to university courses, 1011 (45.0%) to TAFE courses and 53 (2.4%) to college courses. These figures include students who may have received an offer based on alternative selection criteria, for example, a portfolio, audition, alternative admission, or special consideration of educational disadvantage. SECTION 1 Information regarding the cost of tertiary study can be found at www.goingtouni.gov.au or by contacting the tertiary institution directly. Please note, the exact course costs will not be known until 2012. 7 Introduction STUDY COSTS AREAS OF INTEREST SECTION 2 This section provides a brief description of each of the following areas of interest: Areas of Interest 8 • • • • • • • • • • • transportation and infrastructure planning, market analysis, visual impact analysis, and real estate analysis. Built Environment and Design Business and Tourism Creative and Performing Arts Education Engineering and Technology Health and Recreation Humanities and Social Sciences Information Technology Law Primary Industries and Environment Sciences The prerequisites for courses in each of these areas of interest are outlined in section 3: Course Entry Requirements. BUILT ENVIRONMENT & DESIGN Architecture is the art of designing buildings, groups of buildings and other structures, and overseeing their construction. Architects prepare designs and drawings within client specifications, safety regulations and legal requirements. Their designs incorporate both the structural and mechanical aspects of building within an aesthetic framework. They prepare documents detailing the building materials and construction equipment required and interior fittings. Architects liaise with builders and planning authorities, administer contracts and observe and coordinate construction. They consult with other specialists as necessary to create designs that reflect contemporary trends in society. Architectural drafting/building design involves assisting architects in a technical capacity. Architectural drafters/technicians produce detailed drawings of an architect's initial sketch plans. They calculate and provide estimates of materials, labour and completion dates based on an architect's original designs. Architectural drafters/technicians use computers to produce their designs and intricate drawings. They liaise with government representatives, inspect potential building sites, and supervise the progress of construction sites in the absence of an architect. Graduates find employment with architectural and planning firms in the private sector, in various departments of state and federal government,with engineering firms, and with large building corporations. Building/construction management relates to the management and integration of specialist workers and resources. It involves planning, organising, coordinating, motivating, and controlling all activities involved in the complex construction process and in building development. This requires a detailed understanding of the principles and practice of building technology, building economics, law, and construction management. Employment is found in government departments, construction, building, and sub-contracting companies. Building surveying/inspecting encompasses the products and processes involved in the construction industry as well as the management, law and science behind them. Building surveyors enforce, advise on and interpret laws and regulations controlling building and construction.

Computational biology is the application of computing to the management of large biological datasets and the use of such information to understand biological processes. Applications span the full range of biological investigation from the analysis of molecular structure and function to the modelling of complex systems such as ecosystems. Computational biology occupies a niche at the interface between the biological and mathematical sciences. Drug design and development/pharmaceutical chemistry involves the design of new pharmaceutical chemicals and their availability to the community through successive stages of synthesis, testing, formulation, and large-scale production. Food science, nutrition and technology studies cover the fundamental physical, chemical and biochemical nature of foods and also the principle of food processing. Food technologists develop, research, select, preserve, process, package, and distribute what should be safe, wholesome, nutritional, and appealing foodstuffs. Some food scientists choose to work on the physiology of food, the sociology of food (cultural differentiation) and the business practice of food manufacture, storage, distribution, and retailing. Many food scientists work in the fields of health, nutrition, and sanitation. Food scientists also work in formulating guidelines and regulatory statutes. Wine science is a specialised area in the wine, brewing and food processing industries. Graduates have a knowledge base and skills for a career in wineries, production management, quality control, and research and development. EARTH SCIENCES Archaeology is the scientific study of past human activities, by discovering and analysing their physical traces. These traces include artefacts, buildings, campsites and shipwrecks. Evidence of environments which have been altered less visibly are analysed on a chemical or microscopic basis. Both prehistoric and historic societies are studied, as are human origins and evolution. Earth resources is the study of the distribution of elements within the solid earth, the hydrosphere and the atmosphere, and the principles governing their migration. As such, Earth resources includes disciplines as diverse as mining and exploration geochemistry and environmental science. It involves the study of geology, chemistry and other science subjects. Earth science is the broad term used to describe studies of the solid earth, the hydrosphere, and the atmosphere. It includes studies of the properties of the Earth, the natural processes that act on both its surface and its interior, and the history of its evolution. The numerous branches of Earth science studies are based on applying various combinations of chemistry, physics, mathematics, computing, or biology to Earth systems. The boundaries between the branches commonly overlap. Earth scientists (including geologists, geophysicists, geochemists, and palaeontologists) find employment in government and private sectors including the minerals and energy industry, civil engineering consultancies, environmental and groundwater consultancies, and research institutions such as CSIRO and universities.

MATHEMATICS AND COMPUTER SCIENCE Geology is the branch of Earth sciences concerned with: the materials, chemistry, structure, and landforms of the Earth; the history of formation of the continents and oceans; and the techniques used to interpret these features. It involves the study of geology, chemistry and geochemistry, and other science courses. Geophysics is the branch of Earth sciences that studies, and images, the interior of the Earth using such physical properties and phenomena as seismic waves, heat flow, gravity, and magnetism. It involves the study of geology, physics, mathematics, and computing. Within mathematics, there are five broad areas of interest: pure mathematics; applied mathematics; corporate mathematics; physical mathematics; and statistics. Many scientific disciplines depend upon mathematics, both in their theoretical aspects and the practical applications of the sciences. Mathematicians are employed by large companies to keep their communication technology, management methods and specialist products ahead of their rivals. They are required by superannuation funds, health insurance funds, governments, and large corporations to analyse and solve complex business and social problems. There is scope within universities and research organisations such as CSIRO for those who are interested in either pure or applied mathematical research. Marine science is the study of the marine environment. It combines marine biology, oceanography, marine geoscience, and environmental management. Marine scientists investigate and manage human impacts on the marine environment and marine resources. Meteorology is the science of forecasting the weather and studying the physics and dynamics of the atmosphere, climate and weather patterns. Meteorologists study specific climate change and investigate the most efficient methods of analysing and forecasting atmospheric conditions. They analyse and interpret atmospheric data relating to weather conditions and research and develop new theoretical concepts. Oceanography is divided into four main disciplines. It covers these sciences: geological (the origin and evolution of ocean basins and margins); physical (tides, waves, currents and their physical interactions); chemical (the chemistry of sea water and how sea water interacts with biological aspects of the ocean environment); and biological (life in the oceans, productivity and habitats). ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCES There are increasing opportunities for employment in environmental protection and monitoring.

They assess the impact of agricultural, rural and urban developments on air, soil and water systems and attempt to minimise these impacts. understanding how and why human movement occurs, the adaptations to movement which occur with training, and changes in movement which result from disorders, maturation and ageing. Biological perspectives on human movement provide a basis for a wide range of professions in the areas of sport and exercise science, health promotion and health and physical education. Coastal management involves analysing, assessing and monitoring coastal habitats and water quality in both estuaries and inshore areas. Areas of critical importance include marine ecosystems, coastal ecosystems, aquatic ecosystems, and coastal protected areas. Studies also include restoration and repair of critically damaged areas. Medical radiation technology is divided into two strands. Medical imaging technology involves the use of x-rays, ultrasound, nuclear medicine, and other modalities in the production of images to facilitate the diagnosis and subsequent management of disease and injury. Radiotherapy technology involves the planning and use of ionising radiation to cure, relieve or contain disease. Technologists Sport science assesses and analyses the human body's performance in daily life, leisure and recreation activities, and in athletic pursuits. Sports scientists attempt to maximise body performance utilising their analysis and specific performance objectives. Graduate opportunities are available in a variety of sport, health and fitness-related areas such as: activities officers; gym managers; exercise therapists; outdoor education officers; and fitness consultants. PHYSICAL SCIENCES SECTION 2 work in conjunction with medical specialists and may be employed in public hospitals or private practices. Chemistry can be broadly divided into four areas: organic chemistry, concerned Industrial chemistry is concerned with the application of chemical principles to the chemical industry, including the acquisition, processing and analysis of raw materials. It is also concerned with the quality control of products, computer process control applications, and the nature of reactors and their control. Industrial chemists understand the chemistry of industrial processes and have the skills to operate and improve chemical plants. This field involves the study of chemistry, industrial chemistry, computer engineering, and mathematics. Instrumentation is concerned with the application of physics to the design and construction of high-technology apparatus and leads to employment in industries which seek to develop the next generation of technology. Laser sciences involves combining a variety of theoretical and practical skills that lead to an understanding of the fundamentals of optics, spectroscopy, the principles of laser design and construction, the interfacing of computers and microprocessors to laser and optical instrumentation, and the use of these technologies to address technological challenges in the research and industrial arena. Graduates are employed in jobs relating to the design and manufacture of optical information systems (eg barcode scanners, text and graphics reproduction), compact disk technologies, laser systems for industrial and agricultural alignment functions, lasers in spectroscopic applications such as particle sizing and atmospheric remote sensing, and lasers in medicine and ophthalmology. Materials science includes the development of new materials as well as the study of existing ones including metals, minerals, glasses and ceramics, synthetic and natural polymers, composite materials, electronic and photovoltaic materials, crystal growth, and nano and biomedical materials. New materials are increasingly part of everyday objects as well as high-tech devices, and materials science study has important applications such as forensic investigation or in assessing the condition of materials in existing structures, eg aircraft or heritage buildings. Physics is concerned with the fundamental properties of the universe (nuclei, atoms and molecules), and with the laws that govern their behaviour. Some areas of specialisation are in mechanics, relativity, nuclear physics, optics, microprocessors, geophysics, measurement and instrumentation, and radiation physics. VETERINARY SCIENCE Veterinary science deals with the production, husbandry and care of animals in health and disease. These may be food animals, companion animals and animals in their native environment. Veterinary science provides students with a basic training suitable to serve both groups and to work in related sciences. More than half of the veterinary graduates are employed in private practice, the remainder work mainly for government departments or in universities or research institutes. Employment is also found in wildlife and conservation, in policy planning for large companies with agricultural interests, and in developing countries where animal agriculture is vital. 21 Areas of Interest with carbon compounds; inorganic chemistry, the study of the compounds of metals and non-metals; physical chemistry in which physical and mathematical methods are used in studying chemical phenomena; and analytical chemistry in which the composition of materials is illustrated.
