Course description
Research report courses allow a student to work independently with a supervisor from the School to complete a research thesis. This course is for full-time students seeking to complete the thesis in one semester. Access to this course is limited. Entry is initially restricted to students who have: 1) an exceptional record of achievement reflected in a high GPA; 2) completed #12 units of their Program comprising all 6 MGPP Core Courses; 3) completed a research report application form, which includes a detailed research report proposal. Completion of a research methods course is a recommended prerequisite. Further information, including the application form and the application due date, is available from the POLSIS website here. Students are required to submit the application form and their research proposal by the relevant due date by email to polsis@uq.edu.au.
