Syllabus:	This unit develops the capability and requisite skills of an engineer to build a foundation of knowledge related to a particular problem. This foundation provides a basis on which to design a solution that is robust and safe, cost effective and appropriate to the end-user. It is essential that this foundation reflects not only established thinking and practices but equally important, it should account for divergent and newly developing views as well as any limitations or weaknesses that underpin current understanding. The quality of the engineering solution is therefore a function of the quality and timing to complete this investigation - an investigation that forms part of a process known as research. The seminars are intended to broaden the student's knowledge and encompass topics relevant to a professional mining engineer. While some of the topics may be presented in earlier parts of the program, each seminar allows for a more in-depth analysis by the student.
