Aims
This module aims to provide students with an opportunity to gain insight and to experience selected areas of the programme of study from a work related learning perspective. The module provides students with the opportunity to undertake a 4-week work related learning placement or applied project. This allows students to work within a professional context and to take responsibility for their own learning. It will enable students to build on any previous work related learning experiences and to develop the process of making links between experiences and theoretical studies. The placement will allow students to develop and practice world of work skills, and to learn experientially in an area relevant to their future career choices.
