This subject offers students options for specialising in and/or extending their research skills. Students can use the subject to build on skills and knowledge derived from 50164 Research Methods 1 and/or 50165 Research Methods 2 and other more theoretical subjects. The subject is based on an individual project and is designed to allow students to demonstrate their capacities to produce a professional level project appropriate to entry to a research-related career, with the necessary supervision and support to develop the level of practice and/or in preparation for an Honours thesis. Students are able to explore different techniques and are expected to read widely as well as undertake appropriate fieldwork. They can explore a range of more specialist research strategies such as ethnography, oral histories, public histories, or in-depth research as project-based learning for part or the whole of the semester. Projects undertaken can also include practical projects of use to community organisations or advocacy groups.
