Syllabus:

A semester of intensive dissertation writing. The aim is to enable students to enact their research knowledge, skills and understandings by demonstrating their ability to plan and implement an effective and culturally appropriate small scale research anddevelopment project in an Aboriginal context. The research in which they engage should have benefits for those who are the focus of the research activities. It should also draw on an Aboriginal knowledge base that is relevant to the contexts studied. Students are required to undertake a supervised reading program relevant to their specialised topic, under the guidance of their supervisor.
