Modules
Engineering Route
Computing Route
Calculus and Trigonometry
To prepare you for science study, you will develop an understanding of trigonometry (relations in triangles), trigonometric functions (Sine, Cosine and periodicity) and vector algebra (linear algebra).
Foundation Chemistry
You will learn how to understand formulae, equations, moles and volumetric analysis. You will also study atomic structure, properties of ions and molecules, molecular structure and bonding, states of matter, enthalpy, reaction kinetics, redox reactions, equilibria, acids and bases, and the periodic table.
Foundation Mathematics B
Learn how to apply mathematics to everyday situations and cover the basics in calculus, algebra, functions and derivatives.
Introduction to Programming and Computing I
This module develops an understanding of the key elements of modern computing with an introduction to Flowchart design, Systems Design and Object Oriented Programming upon on which students can further develop programming skills.
Introduction to Programming and Computing II
This module develops an understanding of the key elements of modern computing with an introduction to Systems Design, Programming, Databases, and Web Development. The module offers hands-on experience activities to develop students’ practical skills.
Introduction to Inorganic and Organic Chemistry
This module develops the basic principles of chemistry and will stimulate your appreciation of the social, environmental, economic and technological impact of chemistry on the community. You will study organic chemistry, electrochemistry, acids and bases, lab techniques, mass spectrometry, and more.
Mechanics
An introduction to vectors, linear and projectile motion and analysing and constructing graphs. You will gain an understanding of the physical principles that describe classical mechanics, circular motion and gravity. Concepts include forces in equilibrium as well as in motion, energy, power and momentum. The module concludes with a discussion on circular motion and Newton’s law of gravity.
Modern Physics
You will develop an understanding of atomic, nuclear and quantum physics. You will also receive a short introduction to astronomy, Earth’s energy balance and energy production technologies. Topics include radioactivity, nuclear physics, energy production, energy transfer and energy balance, differential equations, Doppler effect, Hubble and astronomy, photoelectric effect, matter waves and Bohr model.
Statistics and Vectors
In preparation for science study, this module teaches basic probability and basic vector algebra. You will look at statistical data, tree diagrams and Bayes’ Theorem, modelling and problem solving, and more.
Thermal Physics, Waves and Electricity
This module will develop your understanding of thermal dynamics with a focus on the kinetic theory of gases. You will then study simple harmonic motion and wave phenomena. The module concludes with the study of electricity and magnetism.
