Prerequisite:

Completion of 72 credits of engineering study

This unit includes case-based teaching, where you will apply your knowledge and engage in analytical and reflective thinking to solve complex contextual scenarios. Activities are often designed so that there is not one clear answer, but you will need to work with your peers to examine, analyse and make decisions to resolve the situation.

1. Contracts, law and legal responsibility

8. Discipline-specific module

This task is subject to a competency hurdle. You must achieve a pass in this assessment task to achieve competency.

This team project will concentrate on the development of a pre-scoping study for an engineering project. The study will include:

1. A preliminary report and presentation, providing a description of the project and a breakdown of the roles and responsibilities of each team member.
2. An assessment of the key stakeholders.
3. A breakdown of the key tasks and milestones required to complete the project, along with a planned schedule for the project delivery.
4. An evaluation of the economic feasibility of the project and its sensitivity to a variety of input factors.
5. A determination of the likely environmental, social and governance impact of the project.
6. A consideration of potential legal and ethical implications stemming from the project.

You will reflect on your own and your team's performance in the project, providing and receiving feedback from your team.

This component will cover assessments related to workshop and practical activities throughout the semester. This may include pre- or in-class quizzes, activities and surveys. These formative assessments will enable you to receive regular feedback on your performance.
