August 13, 2023Problem Statement
The problem statement should identify the question/problem, and a brief description of the data set(s). This describes what the problem is, who the problem affects, why research is needed, and how your project will contribute to solving it. A problem statement serve as the basis for your project pr
-
October 8, 2023Week 12: Final report and final presentation
A final academic report detailing introduction, literature review, methodology, result and discussion. A final presentation shows clearly the problem, how the problem was solved and the clear project deliverables.
-
October 8, 2023Week 12: Industry Supervisor Assessment
The student will attend the workplace regularly for the period of placement of 60 days (normally 12 weeks of 5 days per week, or 15 weeks of 4 days per week if studying another RMIT course that requires your attendance at RMIT).
The industry supervisor will mark the students on 10 criteria according to their performance.

bioinformatics genomics microbiology biochemistry molecular biologyThe intent of work placement is for participants to gain work experience at a level commensurate with Master in Biotechnology. A student could work individually or in teams undertaking biochemistry, molecular biology, microbiology, genomics, bioinformatics or related biotechnology projects. Student(s) could either assist in developing new assays or testing more samples with an existing assay.
All placements need to be submitted through our internal form:
