Course description
This course is designed to enable students to undertake supervised independent research in an area of Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander studies. The course should interest anyone who is likely to work professionally with Indigenous people. The potential audience thus encompasses students in areas of the Arts, Humanities and Social and Behavioural Sciences such as archaeology, anthropology, criminology, history and sociology, but also includes those in fields as diverse as gender studies, law, music, education, architecture, geography, earth and environmental sciences, civil and environmental engineering, medicine and allied health sciences, mining engineering, planning and resource management. Students should expect to gain a deeper knowledge of the topic and to acquire research skills in independent study and thinking. Entry to this course requires the approval of the Course Coordinator as well as the agreement of a Unit staff member (if not the Course Coordinator) to supervise and assess the work submitted.
