Approach to learning and assessment

After you are enrolled, you will be able to logon to myRMIT and CANVAS to access the learning methodology and assessment procedures for each course. 

You will participate in your learning experience through: 

• lectures 
• tutorials 
• practicals / laboratory exercises based on industry examples 
• Simulated work / industry related projects 
• Face to face and computer-based learning
• Hands-on practice 
• Work Integrated Learning (WIL) 
• Blended delivery, laboratory exercises, project-based learning, research and presentations     
• Report writing and completing online assessments  

Assessment for this program may include: 

• Practical assessments 
• Online/Written assessments 
• Assignments/Reports/Journals 
• Presentations 
• Team or individual based work-simulated projects 

Overall, the training that you receive will be highly practical oriented including labs, workshop and projects are closely simulated to an Industry 4.0 manufacturing environment. 

If you have a long term medical condition, disability and/or other form of disadvantage it may be possible to negotiate to vary aspects of the learning or assessment methods. You can contact the program coordinator or the Equitable Learning Services (ELS) if you would like to find out more :https://www.rmit.edu.au/students/support-and-facilities/student-support/equitable-learning-services

Work integrated learning

RMIT University is committed to providing you with an education that strongly links formal learning with workplace experience or simulation. You will be working on capstone project based course in a safe Industry 4.0 manufacturing environment. RMIT is fully equipped with latest FESTO cyber physical system lab that has been recently purchased along with robotics stations to train you with latest industry 4.0 technologies. RMIT are also equipped with FESTO mini factory incorporating Bosch industry 4.0 solution for end to end manufacturing and hosted in RMIT’s Advanced Manufacturing Precinct. This Precinct in Building 55 is a simulated manufacturing site and you will complete project in real workplace simulated environment. RMIT purchased Siemens software packages that will give you access to the latest software applications e.g. Mindsphere, supply chain 4.0, Robotic simulator, artificial intelligence. The project work will provide you all the skills and knowledge required to work in the Industry 4.0 manufacturing industry. Work Integrated Learning (WIL) is delivered to you through this project. The Industry Advisory Committee will validate project design and assessment every year to ensure latest industrial practices are incorporated in project delivery and assessment.

MANU2523 Industry 4.0 Project is a capstone course where you will apply many of the skills and techniques learned over the duration of the whole program. You will be assessed in a simulated workplace context, with feedback from an industry and/or community representative.
