Course Description

The substantial part of this course is the organisational placement/consultancy project, where students are given the opportunity to work for an organisation for a limited time with the goal of completing agreed tasks. The MSc placement is expected to run for 10 weeks.

The nature of the work to be undertaken by the student in the placement will be agreed between the supervisor (a faculty member), the sponsoring organisation and the student at the start of the internship.
