The treatise is a formal academic composition on work performed during the student's candidature from a supervised project that contains between 10,000-20,000 words. The format of the project may be of a systematic review of the literature, a case series, short clinical trial, survey or other project acceptable to the unit of study coordinator. On completion of this unit of study the successful student will be able to undertake a medical/scientific project and follow it to its completion, work constructively under formal academic supervision, display scientific thinking and apply this to ophthalmology, and attempt to publish their treatise or learn how to publish their work. Successful students can demonstrate to the examiners that they have a detailed and comprehensive knowledge of one area in the basic ophthalmic sciences or clinical ophthalmology.
