Students are required to discuss learning outcomes, methods for achieving them, assessment and assessment criteria with their supervisor and submit documentation to the program Academic Supervisor before enrolment in and commencement of study in the relevant Semester. Students must also outline their intention to participate in an externship prior to enrolment and receive approval from the program Academic Supervisor.
