This course?is a 'Work Integrated Learning' experience in which your knowledge and skills will be applied and assessed in a real or simulated workplace context and where feedback from industry and/or community is integral to your experience.?

This course builds on and extends earlier knowledge, skills and their industrial application from the Year 2 course MATH2196 Industrial Applications of Mathematics and Statistics 1. You will apply mathematical and statistical concepts to real life problems or work situations. You will develop your verbal and written communication skills, your ability to work in teams, whilst respecting timelines and adhering to professional ethics.

This course can take the form of a broad range of activities including group or individual projects, placements, simulated work placements or a combination. In some circumstances it can be part of WIL activities organised during a study tour.?

Additionally, infrequent complementary WIL activities will be scheduled for all students, for example, attending a seminar of other activity that presents an opportunity to apply for jobs in an industry not covered in MATH2196. You are expected to attend these activities during the semester of your enrolment.

The assignment of projects/placements is undertaken via a selection process which?takes into account?your preferences and academic performance and matches them against advertised eligibility criteria.?

Where relevant, the activity will include relations with an external partner and a coordinator from RMIT.?All external-to-RMIT WIL projects/placements/internships with external partners will require 3-way agreements to be signed between RMIT, the Industry partner and the student(s) to be counted towards this course.
