This is a shell course complementing the suite of flexible single issue elective courses grouped around the compulsory core coursework responding to issues of the moment. It is conceived as an individual, research based elective designed to accommodate additional topics that may become necessary or emerge as a result of regional dynamics during the course of each academic year. |
| Learning Outcomes |
As each individual student's project will be tailored to specific supervisors, the learning outcomes will differ. Nevertheless, as most will pursue guided reading and research papers, it can be expected that the course will promote students' knowledge of the selected area; critical reading and analysis skills; and writing ability consistent with a guided research project. |
| Indicative Assessment | As this is a flexible course used for tailoring individual student's projects to specific supervisors, the assessment will be negotiated in each case. Most often it will consist of a major research paper. |
