This subject is taught intensively. As this is an intensive fieldwork subject, the number of students will be capped at 20 people. Therefore students wanting to take this subject will be subject to a selection process. Preference will be given to students enrolled in the 200 point Masters of Development Studies yet other students wanting to take this subject should still apply and will be included in the program if space allows. All students will be asked to submit a statement on why they want to undertake the subject.
The subject coordinator will undertake selection based on academic merit and the application statement. The selection process will be conducted after the release of the Semester 2 results, and students will be notified before the end of the end of the year of the success of their application. Students will be expected to attend a briefing session three weeks prior to the commencement of the field trip.
