Overview
This integrative capstone project unit for the Bachelor of Agriculture (AgTech) course is designed so that you can demonstrate your learning across the whole course of study before making the transition to the next stage of your career. You will undertake an authentic group project or an industry project that demonstrates the skills that you have developed throughout your studies in this course. Through the application of conceptual thinking and innovative analysis to troubleshoot a complex problem, you will use and document typical project management processes, demonstrate agricultural technology domain knowledge, and in the process, develop several documents that can be included in a work portfolio to assist future employment. You will conduct an AgTech group project, demonstrate your skills in producing relevant artefacts, and generate a project report based on established principles. Working collaboratively within a team, you will identify the needs of diverse stakeholders, assess stakeholder requirements, produce typical project management artefacts associated with a commercial AgTech development project, communicate regularly, participate in technical progress meetings, and provide an end product based on stakeholder requirements.
