Overview

This course exists to satisfy the needs for some flexibility in Honours and Masters programs in Computing to cater for the widely varying interests and chosen specialisations of students.

The course provides the opportunity for a student to pursue an area of study that will complement the other studies in the student's program. Typically, the course will consist of specialised investigations extending knowledge and skills in a certain area. The studies could involve, for example, directed readings, extension of a project (where appropriate), or some other approved activity which would complement the student's studies in the program. Enrolment in this course is only available to students in Masters and some other Postgraduate programs and such enrolment requires the permission of the Program Director before enrolling.
