Handbook - Humanities and Social Sciences Research Project 1

There is a more recent version of this academic item available.

Overview

Students will undertake a research project on a nominated topic in a specific discipline area commensurate with their year of study. As one of the aims of the program is to further develop critical thinking and independent research skills, the project will involve 'hands-on' research experience in collaboration with a staff member or their research team. A supervisor, who will work closely with the student, will manage each project. The research project will be chosen after discussion between the student and the supervisor. Students will be expected to present a short introductory seminar on the topic by week 4 of Session. Final assessment will be based on a written paper and an oral presentation.
