This course consists of two foundation units and discipline units within the area of study corresponding to your chosen field.
Foundation knowledge
- These units will provide you with the knowledge and skills necessary to be an independent learner who can succeed at university studies. You will develop enhanced writing and critical reading skills and learn how to produce essays and reports that present a critical argument and adhere to the conventions of academic presentation. You will also learn how to get the most out of lectures, tutorials and other learning materials and understand the expectations of university studies.

If you already meet the mathematics prerequisites, you will take a unit in understanding knowledge and its contexts, which will help you to identify, compare and discuss different approaches to knowledge.
Specialist discipline knowledge
- This component of your study will be dedicated to first year units in the course you are aiming for. These units will introduce you to the fundamentals of your chosen field of Business, Education or Nursing and will ensure you have the knowledge and skills necessary to take the next step in your higher education studies.
