Description Applied Project (Human Resources and Management) is an integrated capstone subject that brings together the skills and understandings HRM and management students have developed during their course of study. The subject encourages HRM and management students to demonstrate their ability to solve multidisciplinary problems in relation to current and future issues that affect the application of human resource and management functions in contemporary workplace and industry contexts. The subject will also allow students to critically evaluate issues critical to these professional domains to determine and assess effective solutions. The topics are determined from year to year by discussions between the individual student, the subject coordinator and the student's chosen supervisor.
