This subject contains a less than 60 days Compulsory Workplace Learning component.
Workplace learning (WPL) will be undertaken on and/or off campus at a veterinary enterprise which is relevant to the selected discipline and research project. The duration of WPL is a variable amount and negotiated between the student and supervisors, with a maximum duration of 60 days distributed over the 18 month period. The maximum duration of 60 days is 25% of the allocated time for the 96 point subject of 1680-1920 hours (the subject workload hours align with the CSU Subject Outlines policy of 140-160 hours/8 pts). The WPL is designed for students to undertake research in the context of professional practice and to develop capacity for research-integrated practice, which adheres to the specifications and purpose of the professional doctorate degree (AQF level 10).
