PSY599 Applied Research Project-cum-Work Attachment is a 250-hr supervised practicum that includes an applied research project. Students will work independently over two semesters, under the guidance of their field and research supervisors, to develop an applied research project in his/her area of interest within their specialisation track. To ensure relevance and applicability, students are required to understand the issues on the ground first before developing the applied research project. The applied research project should be of sufficient depth, and reflect the student's ability to apply their knowledge into real world settings, showcasing findings that would be relevant and beneficial for industry partners. Students will be required to present their findings in both presentation and report format through a viva voce (oral exam), a presentation pitch to the industry partner, and a written research report of 10,000 words.
