Can someone give me a site where I can do some background reading to
understand  what Argus does.
Money is not necessarily needed -it depends on the scale of the project ,
the needed competency of the student, and the expected outcomes. See my
project types 1-4. Also project types 3 & 4 have some research flavour to
them, especially Honours projects which are driven around a research
theme.
thanks
