COMP496/901: Assessment


The purpose of this unit is to ensure that you achieve a basic level of competency in both writing about your research, and in giving presentations. These are skills that require practice, so the way assessment works in this unit is different to that in other units.

Here are the items of work that you have to submit. The scheduling of these is tight, but this is necessary in order to provide appropriate feedback to honours students, who have nearby deadlines for work related to their honours projects.
