Modules
The modules are taught in a variety of ways, and encourage enquiry-based learning and problem solving, enabling graduates to think laterally and make complex decisions when entering the world of work or further study. Modules are assessed primarily through coursework, including short reports and presentations. Some modules include group work to develop and discuss ideas. The research project is assessed, in part, by the submission of a dissertation.
