    The Personal Interest Project (PIP) is a compulsory section of the Higher School Certificate (HSC) Society and Culture course. The PIP can be up to 5,000 words and is worth 30% of the course for the HSC. It provides an opportunity for students to carry out guided social and cultural research in an area of personal interest.

    The annual Society and Culture Awards are held under the auspices of the Society and Culture Association at the Mitchell Library. These awards acknowledge both excellence in the overall HSC examination for the ‘Top 10’ candidates and for excellence in the Personal Interest Project by acknowledging candidates who have achieved a High Distinction. Each recipient is given an individually engraved medal and in some cases a specific prize.
