This research project is an individual, but guided research study in Medical Physics with graduate faculty supervision. Written and oral presentations of a research study are required. In many respects the individual research project is the culmination of the students’ learning experience during the degree programme. The dissertation offers an opportunity to study in depth a problem or issue which is of personal interest, and which can be explored using the knowledge acquired during the clinical training
On successful completion of the course, students should be able to:
1. Formulate a research question, hypothesis or statement of purpose
2. Conduct a literature review and synthesis
3. Apply detailed methodology for conducting the study
4. Apply data collection and analysis strategies
