Students should discuss this with their supervisor but as a guide, a student enrolled in a 25-point research project subject would be expected to be engaged in their research for an average of 20 hours per week or 400 hours for the semester.
Students may choose to do a 25-point project over two semesters (12.5 points x 2). Students enrolled in a 12.5 point research subject would be expected to be engaged in their research on a pro-rata basis.
