General Information

Overview

Applied Wellbeing Project A is the first of two integrated units. In these units, you will plan and design a research project - a research study, a systematic review, or a scoping review - in an applied positive psychology/wellbeing-related field. For students in the Master of Workplace Wellbeing, the project must be situated within a workplace context. Under the supervision of a qualified Academic supervisor, you will develop a research project proposal. This will involve undertaking (i) a preliminary literature review to identify and support your proposal; and (ii) developing a project plan, including proposed Methods, Data Collection and Analysis sections. As part of the unit, you will also complete a relevant ethics application for a proposed project. In the unit Applied Wellbeing Project B (PSYC20045), which is Stage 2 of the process, following proposal approval, you will undertake your research study, systematic review, or scoping review.
