Undergraduate
Description
In this subject, students are provided with an opportunity to undertake the cultural impact assessment of a proposed land development project and the technical design of a land-based effluent treatment site. For the land development site, it involves integrating the knowledge and findings of the community’s culture and traditions with a view to reduce its adverse impact from land development. For the design of a land-based effluent treatment site, it involves integrating the knowledge of chemistry, geology, soil and water. Predictive modelling of the effluent system requires the application of established engineering methods, the identification and management of parameter uncertainty, and utilisation of research skills to manage unknowns. The outcomes of the design process are communicated in professionally relevant ways using both written and multimedia formats.
