Content
The unit content will focus on an approved built environment related topic and will be developed in conjunction with the unit chair and an appointed supervisor. Students will be required to select a topic or theme or area and to have it approved by the unit chair and appointed supervisor prior to commencing their investigation. The topic or theme or area will be selected from a range of possibilities suggested by staff who are available to supervise.
This unit provides research training through the identification, review and critique of a particular aspect of the built environment and the development of research. Activities include development of a clear and achievable research aim, enunciation of the rationale for the research and writing a critical thesis. This will be documented in a 10000 word paper, with associated image, digital and supporting appendices as necessary, of publishable quality. Students will work with an academic supervisor to assist them in their research and to provide direction.
Assessment
Thesis (10,000 words) or equivalent 100%.
Assessment will be based on the submission of a thesis (and supporting material as agreed at the outset with Unit Chair and supervisor).
