Today we are a global university of technology that provides students with the learning, teaching, research and training that enables them to excel. RMIT is among the largest universities in Australia, with a student body of 72000 including 28000 international students (onshore and offshore). The University has campuses in the heart of Melbourne’s central business district, in Brunswick and Bundoora in the city’s northern suburbs, and in Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City in Vietnam. We also have strong links with partner institutions which deliver RMIT degrees and diplomas in Singapore, Hong Kong, China and Malaysia. An impressive research profile, industry-relevant learning and extensive services and facilities are just some of the reasons students choose to study at RMIT. As a new RMIT student you will also benefit from our $AUD600 million investment in student learning and research facilities, the largest expenditure on capital works in the University’s history. Our degrees maintain currency and relevance thanks to the University’s teaching and research connections with industry, community partners and leading universities on every continent. As a postgraduate student, this means the opportunity for involvement in student placements and collaborative research projects with industry as well as industry guest lecturers and the involvement of practitioners in teaching. A range of study options including graduate certificates, graduate diplomas and master degrees is available. RMIT’s strong professional programs prepare graduates for employment and active participation in their communities and ensure that the University maintains its reputation for producing some of Australia’s most employable graduates. Professor Margaret Gardner AO Vice-Chancellor and President POSTGRADUATE STUDIES AT RMIT ‘The postraduate degree conducted by RMIT has a good balance of theory and practice, which is vital.’ Chathuri Lakshika Jayasinghe, Sri Lanka Doctor of Philosophy (Statistics and Operations Research) ‘I chose RMIT because of the University’s reputation; my supervisor’s reputation, expertise in my topic and commitment to research; my liking for the topic I am working on at the moment; and the informal and friendly environment at the department. ‘For a research student, all these things are essential in order to become a successful researcher.’ 2 RMIT UNIVERSITY | 2011 PROGRAM GUIDE FOR INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS | POSTGRADUATE WORK-READY SKILLS FOR INTERNATIONAL JOB MARKETS With three campuses in Melbourne and two in Vietnam, RMIT is a globally-connected university with a reputation for excellence in work-relevant education and high quality research.

  • Continuing Professional Development for RMIT International University Vietnam Library Staff: Adding Value Through an International Partnership

    Continuing Professional Development for RMIT International University Vietnam Library Staff: Adding Value Through an International Partnership

    Asia-Pacific Conference Library & Information Education & Practice, 2011 Continuing Professional Development for RMIT International University Vietnam Library Staff: Adding Value through an International Partnership JULIA LEONG, [email protected] University Library, RMIT University LOC HUU NGUYEN, [email protected] Beanland Library, RMIT International University Vietnam ABSTRACT The aim of this study was to explore the effectiveness of blended learning – the fusion of face-to-face and online learning experiences – to implement an effective and culturally sensitive program of professional development in an Australian university working in a developing country. It sought insight into pertinent pedagogical approaches for staff development across multiple locations including across national boundaries. The project demonstrates how learners can develop new capabilities and approaches by building on existing skills and knowledge as they interact in communities of practice. The immediate purpose was to design and deliver a continuing professional education program to meet the needs of librarians working at RMIT International University Vietnam in the context of the demands of the academic community and in the light of the challenge library staff experienced in seeking to meet explicit and tacit expectations. The project ran from late January to mid December 2010. The research questions were: „Is blended learning effective as an approach to continuing professional development when working across cultures in a multinational organization?‘ and ‗What contribution do face-to-face and online components make to learning outcomes?‘ The methodology used was an action learning approach. A 2009 consultant's report into the RMIT Vietnam Library established professional developmental needs which were further detailed in February 2010 by the project leader from RMIT University, Melbourne using a skills audit.

[10] It calculates cricket matches. The accuracy of the DLS method is compared the runs team batting second should have scored when the against various supervised learning algorithms for result match is abandoned. If the team batting second has scored less prediction. The result of a cricket match is predicted during the than the D/L Par Score, the bowling team is declared the second inning. The paper also optimized DLS resource table which is used in the Duckworth-Lewis (D/L) formula to increase winner; otherwise the batting team wins. In this paper, we have its predictive power. Finally, an Unpredictability Index is used this Par Score attribute along with other variables to developed that ranks different cricket playing nations according predict the outcome of an ODI match during different stages of to how unpredictable they are while playing an ODI match. the second inning.

    Role of External Factors on Outcome of a One Day International Cricket (ODI) Match and Predictive Analysis

    ISSN (Online) 2278-1021 ISSN (Print) 2319-5940 International Journal of Advanced Research in Computer and Communication Engineering Vol. 4, Issue 6, June 2015 Role of External Factors on Outcome of a One Day International Cricket (ODI) Match and Predictive Analysis Mehvish Khan1, Riddhi Shah2 Student, Information Science and Engineering, BMS College of Engineering, Bangalore, India1,2 Abstract: The outcome of a One Day International (ODI) cricket match depends on various factors. This research aims to identify the factors which play a key role in predicting the outcome of an ODI cricket match and also determine the accuracy of the prediction made using the technique of data mining. In this analysis, statistical significance for various variables which could explain the outcome of an ODI cricket match are explored. Home field advantage, winning the toss, game plan (batting first or fielding first), match type (day or day & night), competing team, venue familiarity and season in which the match is played will be key features studied for the research . For purposes of model-building, three algorithms are adopted: Logistic Regression, Support Vector Machine and Naïve Bayes. Logistic regression is applied to data already obtained from previously played matches to identify which features individually or in combination with other features play a role in the prediction. SVM and Naïve Bayes Classifier are used for model training and predictive analysis. Graphical representation and confusion matrices are used to represent the various sets of models and comparative analysis is done on them. A bidding scenario is also considered to explain the decisions that can be taken after the model has been built.

During the second quarter, our amazing team of volunteers contributed over 1,500 hours of their time to support and feed their fellow students, helping to make the University a better place for everyone. We held a wonderful event in May to say thank you to these very special students and ensure that they are recognised for their efforts. RUSU’s weekly Chill ‘n’ Grill events continue to feed (and entertain) thousands of hungry students across the metropolitan campuses, while the Healthy Breakfast program has grown considerably to now provide an average of 2800 serves of fresh fruit, vegan cakes, yoghurt cups and bread with delicious dips per week. In addition, RMIT’s vocational education students were treated to a bi-monthly free lunch in the Building 57 courtyard, with almost 1800 hot meals provided in semester one. RUSU continues to grow our wide variety of offerings while maximising efficiency to get the most out of our programs.
