To conduct project work in the context of the generalist programme and to present this work as a written report along with a demonstration.

This module will involve the student conducting a mini-project in any area related to the generalist programme. A suitable supervisor will be assigned according to the project chosen. In addition to the subject areas directly relevant to a particular project, the project work will cover the following: implementation and technology related issues; design, application and deployment; scientific method, transferable skills and science & engineering practice. Depending on the project, the work may occur in either the first or second semester. It may also require collaborative team working with researchers in other schools or centres of the university , or with a company.

ardderchog

Equivalent to the range 70%+. Assemble critically evaluated, relevent areas of knowledge and theory to constuct professional-level solutions to tasks and questions presented. Is able to cross-link themes and aspects to draw considered conclusions. Presents outputs in a cohesive, accurate, and efficient manner.

trothwy

Equivalent to 50%. Uses key areas of theory or knowledge to meet the Learning Outcomes of the module. Is able to formulate an appropriate solution to accurately solve tasks and questions. Can identify individual aspects, but lacks an awareness of links between them and the wider contexts. Outputs can be understood, but lack structure and/or coherence.

da

Equivalent to the range 60%-69%. Is able to analyse a task or problem to decide which aspects of theory and knowledge to apply. Solutions are of a workable quality, demonstrating understanding of underlying principles. Major themes can be linked appropriately but may not be able to extend this to individual aspects. Outputs are readily understood, with an appropriate structure but may lack sophistication.

1. Conduct the product in a scholarly and professional manner to deliver a finished article.

2. Critically evaluate the the project and its impact, focusing on context, outputs, and impact.

3. Prepare a project plan demonstrating ability to selectively scope work.
