Highlights of Open Day 2019 include:

STEM World Problem Solver Zone

Potential students will hear how they can make a difference to the world through science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM). The STEM World Problem Solver Zone highlights 17 sustainable development goals set by the United Nations, and how the 最新糖心Vlog鈥檚 students, staff and graduates are tackling the grand challenges of food security, sustainable energy, good health and wellbeing, environmental sustainability, and Indigenous and societal wellbeing. Final-year STEM projects will also be on display.

New defence degree answers industry call

New degree programs under the spotlight at Open Day include the Bachelor of Technology (Defence). This new degree answers the call from industry to the 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide for a qualification that sits between a trade technician and a professional engineer. With strong connections to industry, the program has been designed to meet the demands for a skilled workforce with high employment opportunities post completion. As part of the program, students will commence their security clearance process, offering a fast-track for graduates to start their defence industry careers sooner.
