Unit Enrolment Restrictions
Students must have successfully completed at least two Level 3 units and have a GPA of 5.5 or above. This is an undergraduate project unit; the restrictions above are purposely designed to limit enrolments to a small number of high-performing third year students. Handling large enrolments is not possible in this style of unit.

About this Unit
Science Research Project is a final-year capstone unit that gives students an introduction to scientific research, while extending their knowledge and practical skills. Each student undertakes a research project supervised by an academic staff member. With the assistance of their supervisor, students will research the literature and define the problem to be studied, carry out a risk assessment, develop the appropriate experimental methods, carry out research on their project, and present a final written report and a poster or oral presentation. This unit offers a challenge to final-year students, and allows innovation by the student with respect to both method and research direction.
