Handbook

This course is designed for Science students from any discipline who wish to develop core transferable skills relevant to Science-related workplaces. Through a series of seminars, tutorials and online modules, the course covers broad workplace health and safety topics applicable to all students such as compliance and legislation, workplace behaviour and ethics, the psychology of safety and other relevant professional topics as well as introducing  aspects of commercialisation and entrepreneurship.

This course is core in the Professional Workplace Practice minor (SCIFC2) in the B Science and B Advanced Science (Honours) programs, however it can also be taken as an elective by any student with a Science focus, and can provide fundamental skills for the xxxx3199/3299 Science WIL courses. As such, students planning to enrol in a Science WIL course should successfully complete SCIF2002 before they engage in their WIL project.
