Content
This is a project oriented designed based learning (PODBL) unit, which aims to provide students the opportunity to gain a solid understanding of the operating principles and design of power transmission and distribution systems. Students will engage in a Transmission and Distribution System Design Project. They will explore and learn about different transmission and distribution system technologies. Students will also develop skills in computer modelling and practical implementation of their design to analyse the system performances.
| ULO | These are the Learning Outcomes (ULO) for this unit. At the completion of this unit, successful students can: | Deakin Graduate Learning Outcomes |
|---|---|---|
| ULO1 | Apply technical knowledge and demonstrate competency to design transmission and distribution systems. | GLO1: Discipline-specific knowledge and capabilities |
| ULO2 | Validate a transmission and distribution system design through computer modelling software and practical implementation in a laboratory environment. | GLO2: Communication |
| ULO3 | Propose solutions to design problems for a transmission and distribution system and communicate the findings through a professional technical report. | GLO1: Discipline-specific knowledge and capabilities |
| ULO4 | Collaborate with a team to develop, implement and complete a project management strategy and reflect upon the development of teamwork skills. | GLO2: Communication |
| ULO5 | Engage ethically, practice professional conduct and Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) and demonstrate the understanding of safe work practices in a team environment with students from diverse backgrounds. | GLO6: Self-management |
