Description

This course is a research-based course. You are expected to work on your own with minimal support from your research supervisor. Once you have submitted your research proposal to the Course Coordinator, a research supervisor will be allocated to you. This person will have particular expertise in the area of your proposed research project, and can be used as a sounding board for ideas and for other guidance that you may require. Study materials are not provided as part of the course, and there are no audio conferences.

Your research supervisor will be able to recommend references relevant to your research topic, and your own legal research skills will be vital in developing your own research paper. A guide to taxation research is provided in the Course Profile supplied by your Lecturer.
