How you will learn
Teaching
Learning takes place through a combination of timetabled learning in lectures and seminars and independent learning. Seminars and workshops enable them to discuss and develop their understanding of topics covered in lectures in smaller groups. Students will also be able to meet their personal tutor/mentor.
Class sizes
Lectures are normally attended by larger groups, and seminars/tutorials by smaller groups. All students will have opportunities for one-to-one time with their mentors/personal tutor.
Independent learning
We encourage students to learn independently with support from their lecturers and mentors to achieve goals and broaden knowledge through online learning and independent reading. Timetabled learning includes some time for to learners engage in independent learning on campus and to prepare their assessments in class.
You can also join a range of student societies, including the Economics and Business Society.
Overall workload
Your overall workload consists of contact hours (lectures, seminars, etc), independent learning, and assessments. For full-time students, the workload should be roughly equivalent to a full-time job. For part-time students, this will reduce in proportion with the number of modules you are studying.
Assessment
Learners will benefit from formative and summative assessments that are authentically created to personalise their learning experience. The assessments are fundamentally work-based and uniquely individualized, which enables learners to demonstrate their ability to incorporate in-class insights to their work life.
Learners will have the opportunity to engage with various assessments including essays, business reports, vlogs, key account plans, tender submissions, pitch documents, group presentations, individual presentation and business wargame reflections, which can be collated in learning diaries.
Preparation for summative assessments is spread through the term and supplemented by a range of shorter-term preparatory exercises. These formative exercises do not contribute to the final assessment but are marked and used to provide detailed feedback and assist learners in preparing their summative assessments.
Feedback summary
University policy is to give feedback on assignments within 15 days.
Examination results will be available within 15 days.
