This module aims to enable students to contextualize the theories, principles and concepts learnt during the Masters programme and apply these in a real world setting. The opportunity to undertake this module will be subject to negotiation and agree with the Programme Director. Students will spend a period of time with an external business or organisation or social enterprise, or be based within a funded research project within the University. Students will be largely self-directed but will have regular contact with a supervisor. All placements are risk assessed and align with University policy on placements. The placement is unpaid as this is a credited component of the degree.
