| Project
- MSc Only (60 SM SCQF Credit Points Level 11) |
| The
project module is for MSc students only. The project will
be in a relevant area of motion analysis. The project
must be undertaken at a suitable centre approved by the
University of Dundee.
You must find a suitably equipped location for your project,
and arrange for a local supervisor that should be approved
by the University of Dundee. You will be assigned an internal
supervisor in Dundee. You are responsible for designing
your own project and will be required to submit, for approval,
details of your project, the centre and its facilities
and also about your supervisor and the supervision you
will receive. |
