Overview

The Associate Degree in Applied Science is an industry-focused program designed for people interested in working in fields that require specialised skills and knowledge of applied science principles and processes, including those who may never have considered a career in science.

Fermentation and Separation Stream

Tasmania is famous for high quality food and beverage products, and if you love the idea of practical science and innovative industries the Fermentation and Separation stream is for you. 

While Tasmania island state provides a wealth of the finest ingredients, the real magic behind the success of these industries are people with applied science knowledge and skills creating the artisan outputs that consumers know and love.

From beer, wine, and cider, to fermented food like sauerkraut and cheese, you’ll undertake work placements and site visits with local businesses to learn from some of the best, all the while building your own skills for a bright future in the food and beverage industry.

Practical experience

Year 1

Students are exposed to authentic and engaged learning experiences designed to develop their understanding of work and the workplace.

This is reflected in educational plans developed in consultation with their Academic Coaches and based on a method or approach to practice from, for example projects, data-driven decision making, case studies, field work, simulated environments, design thinking etc.

Year 2

The second year of study builds on concepts of learning through practice from the diploma by introducing students to more complex learning experiences. 

Students will exercise self-awareness, initiative and judgement to manage yourself and professional relationships effectively. The application of tacit knowledge and capabilities will be reflected in a Practice Manual.

Work placement

A key feature of the course is the practical component, to provide hands-on learning which aims to enhance students’ problem solving, communication, critical thinking, teamwork, and leadership skills by allowing them to ‘learn through practice’.
