The Cybersecurity Capstone project provides an opportunity for students to carry out a defined piece of independent research or design. These skills include the capacity to define a research or design question, show how it relates to existing knowledge and carry out the research or design in a systematic manner. Students will be expected to choose a research/development project that demonstrates their prior learning in the cybersecurity domain. The results will be presented in a final project presentation and report. It is not expected that the project outcomes from this unit will represent a significant contribution to new knowledge. The unit aims to provide students with the opportunity to carry out a defined piece of independent investigative research or design work in a setting and manner that fosters the development of cybersecurity skills in research or design. Eligible students for the Cybersecurity Capstone project will be required to complete both DATA5707 (6 CP) and DATA5708 (6 CP), totalling 12 CP.
