2.1 Aims of the Unit

The description of the aims of the unit makes explicit what the unit is designed to achieve. Include here why the unit is important to the learner and how the unit relates to the overall program/major/specialisation where possible.

You may wish to refer to the relevance of the unit to the profession. For example, does the unit build on or apply skills/knowledge from a previous unit, or does it develop skills/knowledge that students will then use in other units?

This section builds an overall sense of the coherence of the overall major or program of study.
