Hi Paul,
Fixes or enhancements to individual tools might be a good place to start -
and you won't need to know as much about the Galaxy internals.
The Galaxy development team look after a lot of tools/wrappers, but of
course there are even more on the Tool Shed written and maintained by other
groups. Fixing a non-core Galaxy tool may not be quite what your lecturer
had in mind, so do check ;)
