Is this an External Project?
An external project is any project that is defined or carried out outside of the University of Glamorgan. These projects may have an advantage in that commercially sponsored projects can lead to employment. However this type of project has an inherent risk with the student possibly limiting access to university facilities and staff and in the case of commercial projects conflicting project goals.
