  <Syllabus Applicant="Y" Label="Syllabus" Student="Y">
    <Content>&lt;p&gt;The project runs over both semesters during which students attend weekly meetings either with their peer group or individually with their supervisor. The group meetings will be used to discuss research-related issues that will enable students to develop key skills such as planning a project workload, writing a literature review, developing a methodology appropriate to the research being undertaken, how to develop a project poster, and how to write a project proposal and final report. Individual meetings with research supervisors will be used for students to discuss various topics such as project progress and to resolve any issues that might have arisen as well as obtaining formative feedback.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;</Content>
