Course description

To gain further research experience & understanding of the perspectives of scientific research, this course provides a select group of students with the opportunity to be immersed in a research group & laboratory. Students apply generic skills & knowledge relevant to biological research to a specific research project, report research findings in a written report & present either as an oral or poster presentation at an authentic research conference environment. Students are also required to attend their choice of research seminars presented across campus & keep a diary of these seminars with notes on work presented.
