What it covers
In OCC4091, you will continue to spend up to two days per week in the organisation or service area where the research proposal developed in OCC3072 will be implemented. This will involve you undertaking a research project, collecting data, analysing data, writing up results and contextualising the results in relation to pertinent literature and the professional practice context. You will disseminate your unique findings in an original thesis which will include a manuscript that may be submitted for publication in a scientific journal after you complete the unit. You will apply your project findings to occupational therapy practice and research. You will consolidate knowledge and skills towards workplace readiness for future clinician researcher roles and entry to higher degree research programs.
