BAHRS4034 Research Design, Management and Methods
The purpose of this unit is to provide the student with a foundation for undertaking and completing a research project within their chosen disciplines. Students will learn about a range of research practices used in scholarly research and will refine their understanding of disciplinary research practices to develop their skills in recognising how the design of a research project affects the nature and scope of what is then learned from that research. Graduates will be prepared for advanced professional practice and/or for further research in a higher degree program. The unit consists of a core, interdisciplinary module examining research design, management and methods, as well as a discipline specific methodology and design component.
