Note
Please check that your computer meets the minimum System Requirements if you are attending via Distance/Off-Campus.
Units are offered in attending mode unless otherwise indicated (that is attendance is required at the campus identified). A unit identified as offered by distance, that is there is no requirement for attendance, is identified with a nominal enrolment campus. A unit offered to both attending students and by distance from the same campus is identified as having both modes of study.
Special approval is required for enrolment into TNE Program units.
TNE Program units special approval requirements.
* The Final WW Date is the final date from which you can withdraw from the unit without academic penalty, however you will still incur a financial liability (see withdrawal dates explained for more information).
Learning Outcomes
1 | Apply the fundamental concepts of group theory and functional analysis, through formulating mathematical proofs; |
2 | Identify and develop solutions to applied problems in physics and the other sciences, using group theory and functional analysis; |
3 | Apply logic, reasoning and a variety of communication skills to present mathematical ideas and results in a clear and precise way; |
4 | Explain the fundamental connection between groups and symmetries, and the application of group theory to a broad range of mathematical and scientific contexts; |
5 | Synthesise the necessary topological concepts that enable infinite processes to be carried out such as continuity and convergence; |
6 | Analyse the structural development of basic topological spaces from metric to (infinite-dimensional) normed and inner-product spaces, and implement the properties of such spaces in a broad range of contexts. |
