Synopsis
This unit forms the first part of the research component of the MITSc programme,
developed further in 64502, 64503 and 64504. It develops the foundation for
ultimately completing a selected project in applied mathematics, statistics or
computer science with the supervision of appropriate staff from the Department
of Mathematics and Computing. The project will consist of review and research
into a well defined area of mathematics, statistics or computer science and
their application. In this unit, information and ideas for the project will be
gathered, organised and a preliminary analysis made in a critical and evaluative
manner. The topic of the project will be selected in consultation with the
staff of the Department.
