This course will assist you with developing foundational knowledge of science that is used in many disciplines. Students who are wishing to pursue a career in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) related careers will benefit from this course. This course also meets the requirements for early childhood and primary teaching undergraduate study. Understanding science helps us to understand the world around us. DIP1755 provides knowledge in a broad range of science topics and the learning opportunities will facilitate development of skills in analysis and problem solving. Science concepts will be introduced and provide a platform for study in many different directions. Completion of this course will give you confidence in introductory science and enable you to consider a range of choices in undergraduate study.

Increasingly in today's world, we are exposed to situations that require both a knowledge of science and an appreciation of scientific processes. Using concepts of self-paced instruction and adult learning the course guides students through a carefully sequenced series of topics that develop the science and mathematical literacy necessary for study in those undergraduate degrees. The content of this course introduces students to the scientific method, measurements, cellular biology, chemistry, astronomy, climate change, and sustainable energy.

The course is structured to increase students' scientific literacy, particularly the ability to interpret, analyse and evaluate scientific data and to effectively communicate their findings. This will enable students to engage with scientific thought processes and content that is relevant both today and in the future.
