11362 Special Project (Technology)

6cp

Students explore areas of interest related to the special projects content through a self-directed learning contract or, when offered, intensive studio mode. The areas for study within the special projects are theory, technology, communications, design and a field study with an overseas study visit. This flexible learning approach allows students to further examine these areas of study in greater detail, or to explore another issue relevant to the topic that has an application to their academic and career development. Projects that are offered may respond to special conditions within the community and/or faculty. The range of projects is limited to the capacity of the program and the academic supervisor to facilitate adequate study conditions and to offer support to the students.

Enrolment in this subject is granted upon negotiation with the Course Director and students must demonstrate that they have a viable project, study plan and appropriate academic supervision. It is the responsibility of the Head of School to appoint the academic supervisor.
