An important part of the learning strategy is the direct one-to-one supervision of your project by a supervisor. Contact hours for the project as a whole would typically be 20 minutes per week.

The majority of your time will be spent in self-managed learning.

100% in-course assessment to include:-

Project Report (learning outcomes 1, 2, 3 and 4)
Presentation (1, 2 and 3)

The three project modules aim to provide an opportunity for you to undertake a significant project on an individual basis. This module deals with the selection and application of appropriate methodologies and analysis and design methods.

You should select and justify your choices and methodology and design methods. There should be an appropriate amount of analysis specific to the project area. For example, projects with a business element should include market analysis; other projects may require a risk assessment to be undertaken.

You will be required to produce a report, conforming to prescribed standards of referencing, which details all aspects of the analysis and design stage of the project. You should also provide evidence of good project management.

Students must be registered on the final year of a Joint Award.
