ETC4860 · Honours research project

Overview

Topics for seminar presentation are selected in consultation with the Chief Examiner. A list of possible topics will be distributed but you're encouraged to propose subjects of interest to them, based in your own discipline. You'll present one paper, and are expected to engage in discussion of others.

Assessment

The Handbook does not list a final examination among the assessment items. That is not a guarantee there is none.

Assessment details may change. Please refer to the assessment information in Moodle closer to the start of the teaching period.

Requisites

The Handbook lists no prerequisite, corequisite or prohibition for this unit.

Workload

Independent study may include associated readings, assessment and preparation for scheduled activities.

Student experience, not official rules. Nothing here changes what the Handbook says.
