Practice Transition Major

Effective from 01-JAN-2015 : Code MABUUJ

This major is a focused learning pathway for students who want to build upon current practice and experience, or to transition to the next phase of their careers. It provides the opportunity to research a current discipline in more depth, or to explore other areas of practice as a means of transitioning to a new or related field of practice. The major enables students to reflect, gain more coherent knowledge relating to their profession, and to self direct the next phase of their career development. Students are required to undertake a series of independent, practice-based projects with written components including a final exegesis report.
