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.
