This course introduces students to the fundamental techniques and strategies involved with problem solving, with an emphasis on analysing and resolving IT problems in particular. Students are expected to develop a sound methodological approach to problem solving that will equip them to resolve problems fundamental to the IT industry. Key to this process is developing confidence, resilience and perseverance in identifying multiple potential solutions to problems individually and in team-based environments. Also to evaluate which solutions may be most appropriate to the problems encountered.

Note: Due to the Job-ready Graduates Package new funding clusters and contribution amounts will take effect in the 2021 academic year. Grandfathering arrangements will be in place for students who would see an increase in their contribution amounts. Under these arrangements, students who commenced their course of study before 1 January 2021 facing increased student contribution amounts for a unit, will instead have their student contribution and Australian Government contribution amounts remain as they were under the previous arrangements (with existing rates being indexed by CPI each year). If continuing students are enrolled in units that will see their student contribution amount lowered, their student contributions will be the lowered amount
