791-334 Enrichment Activities

Major Study Program Planning.

The objective of the subject is to develop in students:

• a wider understanding of the context of their field of interest;

• the ability to identify areas where a greater depth of knowledge of understanding is required to enable the achievement of academic and personal objectives;

• the ability to identify areas for investigation or further study to ensure a broad knowledge of Australian agriculture;

• the ability to plan and implement a program to acquire the understanding and knowledge identified.

To assist with the full development of the student and to avoid excessive specialisation, the student will identify areas where further study is required, and develop a program to broaden knowledge, increase occupational skills, and to enhance professionalism. The program will include at least 10 activities such as participation in or attendance at seminars, conferences, field days, professional courses, and reading. Each major activity will be described and justified in terms of the objectives in 2-4 pages, and compiled into a single report for submission.
