Course description

The course is about the process of undertaking and completing research including developing research ideas and projects in journalism and communication research traditions. Through guidance from supervisors and independent study, the course allows students to examine the goals of research, how to conceptualise and formulate researchable ideas, develop a research proposal, conduct a study and report the outcomes of their research. As part of this course students will devise a focused reading program relevant to their research project, lead discussions in designing a journalism and communication research project and develop specialised knowledge and skills that might be applied to proposed or on-going research.
