This topic may relate to the student’s own field of work and in the past topics have addressed issues such as: Working in Partnership to Improve mental health; Smoke Free Initiatives and Reviewing Research Governance Procedure. It is expected that students will discuss their topic ideas with the module leader, identifying the aim and objectives as well as any relevant learning activities, before commencing their report. Students should note that the aim of this module is not to produce a mini –dissertation; the emphasis is on a relatively short literature review rather than an empirical study or systematic review. Students are also advised not to use their dissertation subject as a topic for this module, as this may lead to problems around self-plagiarism.
