Collaborative Environmental Systems Project (CEGE0029)

Managing environmental performance in the context of complex organisations and institutions requires a range of skills which transcend traditional academic and professional boundaries. In this module you will work as part of a team to deliver integrated outcomes on a project devised in partnership with an industry, government or non-governmental organisation. The projects are real. Successful project outcomes will be implemented by the partners in their on-going operations. Each project will utilise the tools of systems engineering and project management, together with knowledge of environmental systems and sustainability, to deliver valuable and useful environmental outcomes for the partner organisation.

Learning Outcomes

Apply systems thinking to a complex problem
 Integrate environmental performance with wider management, policy or organisational objectives
 Apply principles of environmental engineering and science to devise solutions to a complex problem, particularly in the context of international development (where applicable)
 Work effectively in a professional project team
 Present clearly defined outcomes to a project client

In this module you will pull together all the knowledge learned and skills developed over the course of the degree programme and produce an original piece of...

Digital Engineering Management Dissertation (BCPM0093)

In this module you will pull together all the knowledge learned and skills developed over the course of the degree programme and produce an original piece of research or an engineering artefact. The dissertation is an opportunity to demonstrate the ability to formulate and investigate a question of relevance to the programme of study of Digital Engineering Management (either around organisations, projects or engineering), and to analyse and present the findings of that investigation. During the dissertation you will be the leaders of your research, working under the supervision of an allocated academic supervisor and supported by lectures on research design and seminars and complemented by independent project work.

At the end of this module you will be able to:

Understand theories, concepts, ideas and constructs in the chosen area of research
	Critically analyse and evaluate knowledge and understanding in the area of research
	Identify relevant research methods and state a viable research question within the Digital Engineering Management in the built environment curriculum
