Description
This course is available to students in the BIT (CDF) program. This course introduces students to the technique and practice of IT research today. A background in the science, engineering, and systems methods of research and their common elements of research question, experimental design, data gathering, analysis, and presentation is provided. Context (and mentoring) is achieved through guided revelation of IT research activity conducted in the relevant groups and labs within the school - exposing the student to the variety and diversity of IT research. Students will pick, analyse in greater detail, and report upon, one current IT research activity from the set they are exposed to in the various groups and labs.
