This subject can only be taken following successful completion of INFO90008 Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) Project with a score of 75 or above, and provides students the ability to conduct a substantial and in-depth capstone project.

This would typically involve an extensive literature review, meticulous experimentation and data collection, and thorough data analysis. The results will be reported as a thesis and in a public presentation. In some instances, it is expected that the results will also be submitted for publication in a conference or journal.
