PREREQUISITE: It is recommended that you will have successfully completed either VCE Mathematical Methods 1/2 or VCE Further Mathematics 3/4 or equivalent. If you do not have one of these, you may need to undertake additional private study beyond the normal workload requirements.

PROHIBITION: ENG1005, ENG1090, ENG1091, MTH1049, MTH1020, MTH1030, MTH1035 and MTH1040.

Note that MTH1010 can only be completed prior to MTH1020 and MTH1030/MTH1035 or equivalent. If you have achieved a raw study score of at least 25 in VCE Mathematical Methods units 3/4 (or equivalent) you are not permitted to enrol in MTH1010. If you enrol in this unit and have achieved a raw study score of at least 25 in VCE Mathematical Methods units 3/4 (or equivalent) you will be discontinued. 

Active learning will occur in lectures and applied classes.

Online learning will be used to illustrate and explain concepts and to highlight links between theory and practical work.

If you would otherwise have passed the unit but you do not achieve at least 45% of the marks available for the in-semester assessment you will receive a Hurdle Fail (NH) grade and a mark of 45 on your transcript.

If you would otherwise have passed the unit but you do not achieve at least 45% of the marks available for the end-of-semester examination you will receive a Hurdle Fail (NH) grade and a mark of 45 on your transcript.
