Description

This course is available to students in the BIT (CDF) program. Students will undertake a research project on a nominated topic in a specific discipline area commensurate with study at Year 2 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 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 and will focus on option identification and selection in information technology projects and problems. 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.
