The individual project provides students with the opportunity to carry out an extended investigation into a computer science problem. It allows students to develop their skills in researching and investigating a topic, in writing a detailed report and in the giving of verbal presentations. The student selects a topic area covered by one of the research groups in the department, formulates a project and then finds a member of staff to supervise it. The project will normally require the specification, design and implementation of a substantial piece of software.
