Unit structure

You can structure your enrolment in the research project a number of ways. Firstly, you can choose between part-time or full-time enrolment. Many students choose a part-time option. This may be the best option if you want to consider field work in different seasons, for example. Secondly, you can commence in either first or second semester.
