Negotiated Study unit (ZPP103)

Introduction

This unit puts you in control of your learning by allowing you to shape your study around your interests, career goals, or personal passions. With the guidance of a mentor or supervisor, you will choose a focus—this could be a self-directed project, work or volunteer experience, a series of short courses, or another learning activity that excites you.

Throughout the unit, you will research and communicate your insights, exploring the skills, knowledge, innovations, or solutions that emerge from your chosen area of study. Finally, you will reflect on how your experience contributes to your personal and professional growth, helping you plan your next steps in study, career, or life.

This unit is ideal for students who want flexibility, practical experience, or the chance to pursue a passion project.
