Aims
This module develops student knowledge and understanding of the Civil Engineering Profession by making use of the opportunities available within the workplace.
Learning Outcomes
1.
Work and communicate professionally in a collaborative team environment.
2.
Apply BIM to design, demonstrating professional and ethical conduct.
3.
Plan for their personal, educational and career development
4.
Produce sustainability and environmental impact reports
5.
Make use of computer simulation within the context of civil engineering, and demonstrate an understanding of the limitations of the simulation
Module Content
Outline Syllabus:Reflection and report on learning through work in the Civil Engineering Profession. The work (supplemented by CPD) must include the following:
Design in a collaborative context, use of BIM, theory and practice of group working, risk assessment and risk management, sustainability and Environmental impact assessment, construction programme planning, academic literacy, report writing, research skills, referencing, critical thinking, presentation skills, CPD and PDP, reflective practice, ICE membership requirements
Additional Information:This module is links to direct work experience, gained on projects in the work place. In order to choose this option, a student will need the support of a Civil Engineer who will act as their work place mentor and sufficient time at their place of work to achieve the learning outcomes. Assuming that no more than half the time at work will support the learning outcomes, this would approximate to 10 weeks’ work at level 5 (i.e. after completion of level 4).
All work based learning needs to be assessed and approved prior to commencement in line with the LJMU Placement Learning Code of Practice.
