Syllabus
Key generic lectures will impart information to students about the nature of the module and aspects of project development which are independent of the individual's specific project discipline. These will be delivered to the complete cohort.
Group tutorials will be provided to cater for the more focussed aspects of project development and to enable group contribution to the project work.
Individual supervision tutorials of 1 hour duration will guide the specific aspects and monitor the progress of that student and how effectively the assessment criteria are being adhered to.
