Introduction
This unit provides opportunities for students enrolled in the Masters of Applied Science program in the School of Technology, Environments and Design to undertake a series of research activities related to (but not replicating) their dissertation topic. Examples of these research activities include a literature review, a methods essay, or a practical research investigation. The format of the project will be negotiated and documented with the supervisor and approved by the MAppSci course coordinator.
Students enrol in KGG704 Project A followed by KGG705 Project B. The project report is due at the completion of Project B.
