The first stage of the Project will comprise a literature/conceptual review and research proposal which may comprise theoretical, empirical or design components. Students completing the Diploma will be assessed on this report. Students progressing to the masters degree will be assessed and will use this work as the basis for the study that forms the second stage of the Project.
