Diploma of Science

Science incorporates both a body of knowledge and a reliable process of discovery. It is based on the acceptance of the basic laws that make the universe orderly and reborn. Scientists are observing, measuring, classifying and researching the natural world. They use scientific methods to test hypotheses and use empirical evidence to support or refute their theories. The inherent differences or uncertainties that exist in the natural world mean that scientific conclusions are reliable but can be inferred: they can be revised or corrected when new evidence is presented. Scientists are curious about the natural world and are adept at creating different diagrams and devising ways to solve problems. In the field of Science, it operates within a process of peer review and replication that provides a shared responsibility for the trust of scientific information. In Australia, Scientists have a responsibility to tell the results of their work accurately and without bias from their peers and the public.
