This course is restricted to those students undertaking the BIT(CDF) program. Students undertake problem-based learning or research project on a nominated topic approved by the course authority in a specific discipline area that is commensurate with study at Year 3 level. 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 and their research team. A supervisor, who will work closely with the student, will manage each project. Final assessment will be based on a written paper and an oral presentation, with appropriate weighting.
