LITERATURE REVIEW F/T | Federation University

SCCOR4114 LITERATURE REVIEW F/T

A literature review (maximum 5000 words) will be prepared, based on an individual research thesis undertaken with guidance from research supervisor(s). The student will describe and evaluate the contributions of various writers to theoretical foundations of a specific research area. The breadth, depth and scope of relevant literature will be reviewed. The student will refine and delimit the dimensions of the research topic in light of pertinent theoretical foundations. He or she will critically read, interpret, and discriminate among various scientific writings. The review will be constructed to demonstrate the student's knowledge and comprehension of the research areas. A seminar will be presented, based on the literature review.

Commonwealth supported place (CSP)

A CSP is subsidised by the Australian Government and students pay a contribution amount. Each unit is classified into a band, depending on the study area of the unit (this discipline may be different from the study area of your course).

2026 contribution amount* $1,192
2026 grandfathered contribution amount^ $1,192

^ If you are a continuing student who commenced your course before 1 January 2021, you will continue paying the same amount as you would have, had legislative reforms not been implemented, for any units that would otherwise have an increased student contribution amount.

* For Psychology and Social Work bands the unit fee amount is determined by accredited courses. Students in Postgraduate Clinical Psychology, Professional Pathway Psychology or Professional Pathway Social Work accredited courses should refer to the information below.

Domestic full fee–paying places

A domestic full fee–paying place is one that isn’t subsidised by the Australian Government. These places are offered to postgraduate students or those who are ineligible for a CSP. Domestic postgraduate tuition fees are course-based annual fees, which means individual unit fees vary according to the degree.
