Important questions to ask yourself:

Do I enjoy research?
Do I have access to enough resources?
Do I have areas I wish to explore that are within the perimeters or the research criteria?
Do I have a clear area of focus within my set topic?
Will I be able to make solid conclusions from the materials I research and the topic I have chosen?
Do I have the time to do this task adequately?
Do I have a solid knowledge of language and clarity in my ideas and expression?
Do I have access to a computer where I can edit, type and amass my ideas and eventually present them in the correct format?

Unique:
The Applied Research Project gives you the opportunity to frame your own specific area of study within a topic of interest to you. It gives you the further opportunity to approach it using any sources or resources at your disposal and to conduct research at your pace. Furthermore, because it is a constant work in progress you do not have the pressure of performing and being assessed on the ‘day’ but being able to present your months of work in submitted form and thus all your process can be evidenced.

Skills:

The ability to synthesise information
The ability to communicate ideas
The ability to make assumptions and assertions from well-rounded sources and evidence
An ability to use language concisely and appropriately
Good analytical skills
