Description

DHSc Part I: Research Portfolio The course will be taught part-time over two years / four semesters. Each semester has a particular focus to provide a systematic approach in exploring the literature and other sources of knowledge. Students will develop the academic skills to identify a doctoral thesis topic, and formulate a research proposal appropriate for this level of study. There are four interconnected areas of development: Literature Review; Analytical / contextual Project; Methodological Project; and Research Proposal, each informing and extending the area of interest. In each of the areas of development the unique context of Aotearoa / New Zealand will be applied to demonstrate a bicultural partnership.
