This capstone unit is a central component of the postgraduate journey in Project Management, Management Information Systems, Supply Chain and Logistics Management, and Business Analytics. It offers students a structured opportunity to synthesise and apply the skills and knowledge acquired throughout their course in a real-world challenge. Under the general supervision of a lecturer or academic mentor, students undertake a semester-long project that fosters context-specific practical experience and enhances professional interpersonal and communication skills. Through targeted assessments, students demonstrate their mastery of the Course Learning Outcomes, showcasing their ability to apply theoretical knowledge, analytical skills, and strategic thinking in a professional setting. This unit plays a critical role in evaluating academic progress and professional readiness. Students complete their portfolio to reflect on their achievements, aligning their learning with industry expectations.

This means that assessment tasks must be completed individually (unless it is an authorised group assessment task) and all sources used must be correctly referenced, including artificial intelligence tools.
Breaches of academic integrity can include:
Serious outcomes may be imposed if a student is found to have committed one of these breaches, up to and including a suspension or an expulsion from the University for repeated or serious acts.
ECU's policies and more information about academic integrity can be found on the student academic integrity website.
All commencing ECU students are required to complete the Academic Integrity Module.
