Assignment Detail:
Introduction:
For the KF7028 assignment, you must produce a proposal for a short research project. The proposal is the foundation of the 60-credit project that you will study as part of your postgraduate programme, KF7029 MSc Computer Science & Digital Technologies Project.
This assignment is therefore doubly important:
- It accounts for 80% of the marks for KF7028
- It is essential preparation for your research project.
As stated, the KFG7029 research project will account for 60 credits (one-third) of your programme of study. Typically, you will spend 600 hours on this project.
Your KF7028 research proposal will be approximately 2500 - 3000 words and specify the project background, motivation and relevance to your programme of study; its scope, aims and objectives; a plan of the major activities. Your proposal should draw on current and recent research and other appropriate sources of information and cite these sources using a consistent standard referencing system.
Proposal Structure:
- Research question
- Aim
- Background, Motivation and Relevance - literature review
- Scope, Objectives and Risk
- Sources and use of Knowledge
- Schedule of Activities
- References
