Parts 1 to 4 must be completed to fulfil the requirements of the unit. In consultation with an academic supervisor, students develop the skills of an independent scientist. They conduct original scientific research by defining a problem, critiquing the relevant literature and designing and carrying out a substantial project to address a critical issue. They develop relevant methodological, analytical and presentation skills to complete the research, discuss their results in relation to current knowledge and present this information as a written scientific paper. They also condense the research results for oral delivery though a PowerPoint presentation. -- Course Website
