Description

This subject gives students an opportunity to conduct a self-guided research investigation relevant to data science to develop an understanding of research process and prepare a research paper having potential to be published in peer-reviewed conferences or journals. Students must have an academic supervisor and an agreed research topic approved by the subject coordinator at the beginning of the semester.

Students are required to read relevant papers and the literature, come up with a research problem and develop research questions, and then work with the supervisor to refine the questions, design research and data collection methods to answer the questions, conduct the research, analyse the data and write a report.
