ME781 Project and Energy Management
No. of hours per week: four hours
Instruction: lecture (twenty hours); project (forty
hours)
Assessment: staff consultation and
comprehensive written report
A subject in the Graduate Diploma in Air-conditioning,
Subject aims and description
Project management: contract law, scheduling, costing,
optimisation, maintenance program dewlopment.
Energy management: including energy source selection,
energy management, life cycle costing, system optimisation,
basics of contracting and project management, and current
state of the art applications where applicable.
Field project: the project should be of a practical nature
linking the course elements of air-conditioning, refrigeration
and system control and involve the application of project and
energy management techniques. Where practicable the
project should be undertaken by groups and group size
should not exceed four.

MFl l o Flight Rules and Procedures 1
No. of hours per week: three hours week for two
semesters
A first-year subject in the degree of Bachelor of Technology
(Aviation).
Subject aims
This subject is designed to inform students of their
obligations and responsibilities as a pilot and to correctly
take into account factors affecting aircraft performance
during all flight modes for safe operation. This covers the
theory and practice for flight operations and flight standards
up to a level often in excess of that required for a Private
Pilot Licence.
