Module Overview:
To enable students to research a business problem or issue within an academic context. This module enables final year students to apply their knowledge and skills to a properly researched business problem or issue. For sandwich students, the project focus normally relates to work undertaken in the placement year. Non-sandwich students may base their project on links to a company through, for example, part-time employment, or may conduct a desk based project. All students must submit a proposal to module leader for their intended project. (See module guide for proposal requirements). Feedback will be given to students after project assessment and the programme assessment board, via a mark/feedback form, compiled by the project supervisor. Assessment criteria for the project are detailed in the module handbook.
