FeesLook up fees

Students undertake a year-long (full-time equivalent) research project under the supervision of academic staff from the School of Computing and Information Systems.

For a full-time enrollment, the subject continues over two consecutive study periods (full-time) with students enrolling in parts 1 and 2 in one study period, and then parts 3 and 4 in the consecutive study period, for a combined total enrollment of 100 credit points. To enable part-time study, part-time students may take one subject in a single semester. A mark for the subject/s will not be awarded until the entire 100 points of enrollment has been completed. All subjects are offered in both semester 1 and 2.

Satisfactory completion of the research proposal (in parts 1 and 2) are required to progress to parts 3 and 4.

For full information about this subject, please refer to the Handbook page for Part 1 of the project:

Computer Science Research Project Pt 1 (25 pts)
