Learning and Teaching Methods:The module is delivered using lectures to cover the key themes within the learning outcomes. Case studies will be used to enhance the engineering context of the module content and show application. The group project will be undertaken in the tutorial sessions as well as time and place of the students own choice. The students will be assigned an engineering product to cost and develop a marketing strategy and project plane for ots launch on the market. Students will also spent time in the lab learning MS project. WebCT will be used to support the module, in addition to notes, tutorial and directed study information, WebCT will host information sources which the students can utilise in their independent study time.Embedding employability/PDP/scholarship skills: The key employability skills are: a) Group work - students work together on a project plan, quality plan, marketing strategy and cost plan for an engineering product. b)Comminucation - written communication skills are assessed in the project suubmission. c) IT Skills: students also have the opportinity to learn a software package which is used extensively by industry for project management purposes.Assessment:Formative assessment will take place during tutorials on aspects of group and team working, answers to tutorial questions and contribution to discussions.
