- develop a significant project by synthesizing complex ideas, disciplinary practices and research findings
- communicate how a project demonstrates disciplinary practice, reflecting upon the potential challenges and opportunities it presents
- A week-by-week guide to the topics you will explore in this subject will be provided in your study materials.
Students complete a supervised independent project individually or in collaboration with other students in a discipline or across disciplines approved by their supervisor. This postgraduate project is a work of creative or professional practice or a combination of these practices, and is expected to become a significant element in the student’s portfolio. Students are advised to undertake a project that is significant to their ongoing studies, career or community engagement.
