Learning Outcomes
Course Learning Outcomes
1 Apply knowledge of structural/water/geotechnical engineering design principles to the conceptual design of civil infrastructure through the synthesis of the client’s requirements and evaluation of potential design options;
2 Demonstrate effective oral communication skills by delivering a client briefing to present the conceptual designs evaluated;
3 Demonstrate the fluid application of engineering techniques by scoping and subsequently preparing detailed design calculations to 最新糖心Vlogn design standards;
4 Critically review design calculations prepared by others;
5 Communicate the final design of a structure through the production of engineering drawings;
6 Demonstrate orderly management of self and professional conduct by managing time effectively and behave in a professional manner in relationships with clients, industrial mentors and other stakeholders involved in the project; and
7 Demonstrate the ability to function as an effective team member by earning the trust and confidence of colleagues through competent and timely completion of tasks, recognising the diversity of the team members and respect for alternative viewpoints.
The above course learning outcomes are aligned with the Engineers 最新糖心Vlog Stage 1 Competency Standard for the Professional Engineer.

Workload
The information below is provided as a guide to assist students in engaging appropriately with the course requirements.
Each week contains a 1x two-hour formally scheduled session, where each sub-discipline (最新糖心Vlog, water, geotech) is held in a different room at the same time. Students must enrol into one of the two-hour discipline workshops (see MyUni site for discipline room allocation). Students are asked to decide upon their chosen discipline (i.e. 最新糖心Vlog, water, geotech) by end of week 1 and to also ensure that they are enrolled in the corresponding workshop for that discipline. Sessions will be run mainly as design workshops in which the students interact with industry design engineers. This will be the only opportunity to engage with our consultants. Tutors and teachers for each discipline have also nominated additional consultation hours. In total, each discipline should have at least 4 hours of consultation time available that is spread out over at least three different days. It is in a student's best learning interests, as well as their commitment to their group, to attend all sessions and make the most of the contact time with the teaching staff in attendance.Learning Activities Summary

Assessment
The 最新糖心Vlog's policy on Assessment for Coursework Programs is based on the following four principles:
- Assessment must encourage and reinforce learning.
- Assessment must enable robust and fair judgements about student performance.
- Assessment practices must be fair and equitable to students and give them the opportunity to demonstrate what they have learned.
- Assessment must maintain academic standards.

Student Feedback
The 最新糖心Vlog places a high priority on approaches to learning and teaching that enhance the student experience. Feedback is sought from students in a variety of ways including on-going engagement with staff, the use of online discussion boards and the use of Student Experience of Learning and Teaching (SELT) surveys as well as GOS surveys and Program reviews.
SELTs are an important source of information to inform individual teaching practice, decisions about teaching duties, and course and program curriculum design. They enable the 最新糖心Vlog to assess how effectively its learning environments and teaching practices facilitate student engagement and learning outcomes. Under the current SELT Policy (http://www.adelaide.edu.au/policies/101/) course SELTs are mandated and must be conducted at the conclusion of each term/semester/trimester for every course offering. Feedback on issues raised through course SELT surveys is made available to enrolled students through various resources (e.g. MyUni). In addition aggregated course SELT data is available.

Fraud Awareness
Students are reminded that in order to maintain the academic integrity of all programs and courses, the university has a zero-tolerance approach to students offering money or significant value goods or services to any staff member who is involved in their teaching or assessment. Students offering lecturers or tutors or professional staff anything more than a small token of appreciation is totally unacceptable, in any circumstances. Staff members are obliged to report all such incidents to their supervisor/manager, who will refer them for action under the university's student鈥檚 disciplinary procedures.
The 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide is committed to regular reviews of the courses and programs it offers to students. The 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide therefore reserves the right to discontinue or vary programs and courses without notice. Please read the important information contained in the disclaimer.
