Research projects normally involve an extended investigation into the application of a novel component or technique and they offer the opportunity for the in-depth study of a specialised subject. Each project occupies a nominal 600 hours of student effort and is carried out under the supervision of a member of academic staff. The student will be required to carry out a more extensive and in-depth investigation of the chosen research topic than would be required for the usual 30 credit point project. Importance is given to the planning of the work programme, the setting and achievement of objectives, the costing of designs (where appropriate) and the presentation of the results of the work.
