Content
The unit in conjunction with HSW417 requires students, independently under the guidance of a research supervisor, to design and conduct an independent piece of research. This requires students to identify and refine a research topic and research aims/questions, design a research project, apply for ethics approval, select and apply an appropriate methodology, collect and analyse data and disseminate research findings. Students will be required to present their findings in oral and written form and to produce a thesis document for examination.
