Through a course of research, students undertake their year-long project under the guidance of their individual supervisor for presentation at the end of the academic year.
The major project can consist of single defined project and/or contributions to a number of projects depending on the nature of the discipline. At the time of selection the written outline of the proposed major project or major field of study is submitted.
This provides the framework for developing the lines of inquiry taken by the student and the final creative work outcome.

Assessment
Description | Timing | Percentage |
---|---|---|
A creative work major project to the equivalent of a 15,000 word dissertation. The creative work major project outcome may take the form of a performance, exhibition, writing (poetry, fiction, script or other written literary forms), design, film, video, multimedia, CD, DVD or other new media technologies and modes of presentation. Progress in this area will be monitored both by individual supervisors and a mid-year review. Mid-year reviews identify students at risk and take into account the student's progress against course engagement and project development and other areas relevant to individual disciplines.
