The unit is designed to enable the student to synthesise the
knowledge and skills gained through their prior studies through
completion of an applied research project.
This may be the first unit of a continued project study process
involving four research project units that cumulatively add to a
major piece of research work.
The four units should be designed in phases so that they are
clearly delineated and may be assessed separately.
The project/s can take many forms but students are encouraged to
complete a work-place based study. Some suggestions include:
• a transport plan for a new or existing business or new
function within a business;
• an analysis of a transport process in an organisation
with proposal for implementation;
• development of a transport related Web page for a
business or entity; or
• an instructional, informational or marketing video
presenting transport related research or development
proposals for a business or entity.
Prior approval must be obtained from the Unit Coordinator while
original ideas can be discussed with an appropriate supervisor for
approval and advice. The project must be of a standard suitable
for a business presentation to a client or employer without
amendment.
