Unit description
This unit provides a platform for students to exercise the knowledge and skills that they have gained in previous units within the BBA. The major component of the unit is a business-based team project, where students will actively engage with an organisation including but not limited to: not-for-profit organisations, government agencies, companies, and industry partners. Group work engages students in the challenges of interpersonal communication, task allocation, coordination and control. Students will gain an insight into organisations and be able to contextualise their graduate capabilities into the final business project. |
