About this Unit
This unit aims to further extend the student as a systems thinker and practitioner through involvement in two industry contexts. A Group Pilot Research Project with an industry organisation in the Hawkesbury region, and the negotiation, design and initial conduct of a major client based action research project with an organisation in the student's career/interest area. Students will further extend their competence in research processes, research method, networking, negotiation, design, conduct and evaluation. They will also extend their competence in systems approaches to complex situations and working professionally and ethically with industry clients.
