This year-long module provides to the students the opportunities to work independently on a substantial project, chosen from a range of research subjects offered by the departmental staff. It allows the students to develop their research, planning and practical skills, along with the ability to identify key objectives and combine these in an investigation that you, with guidance from your supervisor, take from inception to completion. You will develop skills in interpreting and critically appraising your results in order to identify key conclusions supported by relevant theory and literature. In this module you will also get the opportunity to develop your skills in time management, constructing and documenting a detailed project plan and presenting and defending your work visually and orally. These activities culminate in the production of a final report and further develop the valuable skills that will enhance your future career prospects.
