Directed Studies B

MRTY5044

The unit allows the student, in collaboration with the University supervisor and the student`s employer, to tailor the content and mode of presentation to suit the needs of the student and the workplace. For example, new technology or procedures may be introduced into the workplace, necessitating changes in the knowledge, skills and attributes of the student. The student must initially present a proposal to the PG coursework coordinator. Upon preliminary approval, a supervisor will be appointed and a firm contract will be negotiated and agreed upon by all parties before semester commencing to achieve the desired educational outcomes. The unit of study may comprise, for instance, a literature review covering the development and applications of a new technology, it may comprise a personal reading and study program, it may involve specific workplace experience and analysis or it may comprise a combination of these elements. It may not be possible for all students to enrol in this subject, as it depends strongly upon the provision of suitable resources and experiences in the workplace, plus cooperation and commitment from the student`s employer.
