Students carry out an independent work-related project on an approved topic under staff supervision. This is done typically in collaboration with an external organisation who provide the project and the data for the student to work on. Depending on the arrangement, the student may have to work at the external organisation under the supervision of their staff.

The students may spend time working off-site or on-campus depending on the requirements and the arrangements in place for each project.

Each project is likely unique and hence will have its own strucure.
