Objectives Upon successful completion of this subject, students should possess an understanding of the client-provider relationship; have developed user skills in relation to the construction of a computing application as specified by the client; gained an understanding of and practical experience in the need for project deadlines and deliverables; gained a broader understanding of the integrated role information technology plays within our society.

Synopsis This subject is designed to provide students with an opportunity to utilise their computing skills in a real-life environment. Students will be expected to liaise with an outside client - drawn from either the education sphere or a commercial enterprise. The student's task is to develop for the client an information technology solution to a problem or project that the client feels desirable to achieve and that the student feels capable of achieving. Students will be expected to draw on their computing skills from earlier subjects and to expand on these as required by the nature of their chosen project. A heavy emphasis will be placed on the practical aspects of this subject.
