Learning outcomes
Students who graduate from Physics will be able to:
| No. | Learning outcomes |
|---|---|
| 1 | Exhibit a broad understanding of foundation concepts in physics and the mathematical skills necessary to formalise these concepts. |
| 2 | Explain how physical theories are formulated and tested, and how they are used to explain and interpret observations. |
| 3 | Explain the role and relevance of physics to society and describe its role in the development and application of technology. |
| 4 | Investigate and solve physics problems using experimental, computational, and theoretical tools and techniques. |
| 5 | Evaluate experimental or computational data in physics, including uncertainties, and use the results to draw conclusions. |
| 6 | Communicate physics to a variety of audiences through a range of modes using evidence-based arguments, and evaluate arguments presented by others. |
| 7 | Source, collect, synthesise and critically evaluate information on issues in physics from a range of relevant sources. |
| 8 | Identify how fundamental physics concepts are applicable in different contexts and apply physics knowledge and techniques to solve problems outside the discipline. |
| 9 | Design, plan and conduct a physics experiment or project. |
| 10 | Address authentic problems in physics, working professionally, responsibly and ethically and with consideration of cross-cultural perspectives, within collaborative, interdisciplinary teams. |
