• This module is delivered through eight days of module content, but needs to be supported through substantial independent study, reading and research. Lectures are important signposts to learning, but are only part of the educational process. The learning process has therefore been designed to provide students with two broad workload categories: a) Taught lectures with lectures exploring both required and self-directed reading material b) Individual reflection to develop students’ critical thinking skills. This module is structured around a series of lectures, readings, papers, case studies and video materials. Please note that the number of hours for planned learning activities and independent student activities will vary from student to student, depending on their capability to absorb and apply concepts and tools, and write up work. A guidance for students is that one credit is a total of 25 to 30 hours of student effort. Thus a 10-ECTS module can vary in amount of student work between 275 hours and 300 hours. Our minimum expectation is as outlined below.

• Module Graded (numeric value) or Ungraded (Pass/Not Passed): Graded

• Pass standard: 40%
• Could the result of this module be capped? This result of this module may be capped (including the resit in August) if the attendance requirement at the first sitting has not been met.
• Penalties: Students are expected to attend all lectures, seminars, and workshops. Where attendance falls below 75%, a student is deemed to have not passed a module. Standard School of Business penalties apply for late submission of assignments; 10% is deducted for each 24 hours (or part thereof) that an assignment is submitted after the official submission deadline. Personal exceptional circumstances policy of the School of Business and University may apply.
