Description

Students in the CDF Program will undertake one or more research-based projects together with coursework as set by the School. As one of the aims of the CDF program is to develop critical thinking and independent research skills, the projects will involve 'hands-on' research experience in collaboration with staff members and their research teams. A supervisor, who is a member of academic staff, will work closely with the student and will manage each project. The project will be chosen after discussion between the student, the supervisor and possibly other members of staff. Students will be expected to present a short introductory seminar in the first half of the semester. Assessment in the course will be based on a written paper and oral presentation on the project, and a combination of examinations, tests and assignments on the coursework if appropriate.
