1. To allow students to work intensively and under individual supervision on a carefully defined topic, proposed by the student and refined in consultation with the supervisor.

2. To teach students how to structure an extended programme of independent research.

3. To encourage critical self-reflection on research and learning.

This module involves the production of an extended piece of critical writing of a length and quality appropriate to the culmination of the undergraduate degree scheme. Drawing on knowledge and critical methodologies learned earlier in the degree, students will be assisted via lectures and individual supervisions in devising, refining, developing and presenting a substantial piece of critical work on a topic of their choosing. The series of introductory lectures and workshops will focus on how to develop the initial research idea into a workable project presented in appropriate scholarly form. Critical self-reflection will be developed via the proposal and oral presentation in the first semester, and via discussions with the supervisor that are held at key stages in the development of the project in both semesters.
