Click here for further information Description: Distance learning Unit (IEM). Aims:
The aim is to provide the student with an opportunity to apply the skills learned in the second two compulsory modules, and to try applying the skills required by the option modules, to a practical case study, and to advance their practical knowledge by attending talks given by practitioners working in each of the relevant environmental fields.

Learning Outcomes:
After successfully completing this unit students should be able to put the academic content of the course in to a 'real world' context. Also, working in groups enables the students to meet and get to know their cohort group, and allows them to meet the subject tutors and other course staff. Finally, the unit will help students choose which of the option modules they wish to take; it also provides the students with an opportunity for fact to face tuition and therefore to discuss any specific problems.

Skills:
The students practice team and presentation skills in the case study project which they complete.

Content:
Five lectures/discussion groups lead by practitioners/consultants in LCA, Clean Technology I and II, Energy Management, Risk Management; and an integrated case study exercise involving all four techniques, and culminating in a presentation given by the students on the final day.
