This is an Advanced Studies Course (ASC) within the Science PhB (Hons) degree. Students do multiple ASCs during their degree studies, each specifically designed to provide a strong research focus customised to each student. These courses are taken under the direction of the academic supervisor of a student in the PhB(Hons) degree, but may involve teaching and learning from a very wide variety of sources. The program of study and/or research is approved by the relevant Head of Department or School on the recommendation of the academic supervisor of the student. The sources include but are not limited to:
* Involvement in current research at the University or CSIRO
* Special research projects from both the Faculties and the Research Schools of the ANU
* Special lecture courses
* Reading courses/ literature surveys
* Specially designed courses of field work or laboratory work
* Development of problems for competitions like the Australian Mathematics Competition
* A program designed in conjunction with one of the organisations working with Australia's teams in the Science and Mathematics Olympiads
* A program of mentoring for other students that involves both production, for example on the web, and delivery of teaching materials
* Talks to Year 12 students or other students in the University
* Web page development
* Seminars to staff and students.
The ANU uses Turnitin to enhance student citation and referencing techniques, and to assess assignment submissions as a component of the University's approach to managing Academic Integrity. While the use of Turnitin is not mandatory, the ANU highly recommends Turnitin is used by both teaching staff and students. For additional information regarding Turnitin please visit the ANU Online website.
