C3 Challenge orthodoxy and formulate new/alternative hypotheses or solutions Practical/Professional Skills P1 Exercise initiative and autonomy in undertaking tasks within the professional and legal standards of the project management discipline. P2 Operate ethically in complex and unpredictable, possibly specialised, situations and has a critical understanding of the issues governing good practice. Key Transferable Skills T1 Identify, manage and reflect on one s own learning and development, including time management and organisational skills, for continuing professional development T2 Communicate effectively with a range of specialist and non-specialist audiences to understand or elicit requirements for, and demonstrate solutions to project management problems T3 Demonstrate competence in mathematical skills commensurate with the demands of research and scholarship in Project management. T4 Demonstrate competence in computational and IT skills commensurate with the demands of research and scholarship in Project Management and its professional context. T5 Collaborate effectively with others in ways appropriate within the professional Project Management context. 19. Key Learning & Teaching Methods The objective of the programme of study is to produce graduates who possess a detailed knowledge and understanding of particular aspects of project management and the skills necessary to allow them to analyse complex problems. Students will study the latest literature and methods in the field. The programme design is based to promoting effective student learning both in conventional classroom situations and also outside the classroom by producing self-motivated learners. Students will be taught by a combination of methods including conventional lectures, e-learning, tutorials, case based learning and design studies. Reflective practice throughout the programme is a key element to allow the student to examine their own work, identify their own learning needs and challenges whilst providing evidence of what is required to operate confidently, efficiently and ethically in the work place and thereby develop an understanding of good practice and the ability to solve foreseen and unforeseen problems. The programme employs a diversity of teaching and learning methods including: Lectures Tutorials Seminars (including oral presentations and poster sessions) Computer Laboratory-Based Sessions (M S ERP, ndccir) Group Work Research Project Practical Health and Safety Skills Each programme and module is supported by a specific VLE site (e-learning@tees site). Page 3 of 31
4 Lectures Lectures are used to convey substantial elements of the subject content, provide core themes and explanations of difficult concepts, and set the scene for students' independent learning. The traditional format is enhanced through the use of computer-based, or other audio-visual aids, and supported by interactive VLE based provision of lecture notes. Tutorials and seminars Tutorials and seminars provide a context for interactive learning and allow students to explore some in project management in more depth. In addition, modules such as Research and Study Skills and Project Management and Enterprise provide opportunities for the students to develop skills such as information retrieval, problem-solving and communication. The Research and Study Skills module also allows the development of the skills necessary to support the individual Research Project. Computer Laboratory-based Sessions Most modules in MSc Programme employ a range of computer based-laboratories to permit students to perform simulation and numerical analysis of complex systems (using commercial software such ndccir, MSc Project). The modules Advance Project Planning and visualisation/risk Management in Projects use computer based software to interact with the real world and perform online control and analysis operations. In addition, both of these modules also use computer based module assessment strategy. Group Work The primary vehicle for group work within the programme is the Project Management and Enterprise module. This module allows students the opportunity to work as a multi-discipline group. This will allow students to gain an understanding of the mechanisms for working as part of a project team as well gaining an insight into working effectively with people from different academic disciplines. These skills are vital for developing a work ready graduate for the modern working environment. Research Project Students undertake a substantial individual research project. This project is used to integrate the technical, research and employability skills gained during previous modules. The project enables students to challenge orthodoxy, demonstrate originality, plan and organise with significant autonomy and operate ethically in potentially unpredictable situations. Practical Health and Safety Skills (0 credits): This module ensures students are able to work in a safe manner during practical sessions. They will be taught about the need to adhere to health and safety regulations and good practice as well as how to maximise the safety of themselves and those around them. This module is delivered in a week block structure and involves undertaking some basic health and safety assessments. These assessments are marked as a pass or a fail and you must pass all the assessments to pass the module. If students fail the assessments on the Practical Health and Safety Skills module, they will only be allowed to undertake a literature based research project. In addition this programme has two option modules which students choose to study only one of them. This is to ensure that those students who originate from industry and have already gained Prince2 awareness have the option to explore a different Page 4 of 31
5 side of Project Management in The Management of Change module. The learning outcomes for the programme have been developed to ensure that whichever option the students choose does not impact on their overall programme experience. The option modules have a minimum student number of 10 for the module to run. This minimum number is not seen as an obstacle for being able to run both modules each year as they are modules that are shared by other students from other programmes. Students will choose their option module at the start of their academic year in the induction period of their programme. 20. Key Assessment Methods Assessment is noted to be the single most powerful influence on how and what the students learn. Teesside University s Teaching and Assessment Strategy emphasises that the informed use of assessment is to promote learning and the matching of assessment to learning outcomes. In this programme, students will experience a broad and balanced range of assessment methods to address the range of learning outcomes identified. In designing the programme structure care has been taken by the programme team to ensure there is equivalence of assessment(s) between modules. Students are presented have access to an Assessment schedule providing details of the submission deadlines for summative assessments. Formative assessment has been placed in each module as appropriate so that the students can benefit (i.e. enhancing learning and assisting towards summative assessments) from this within that module and throughout the programme. Example formative assessment methods will include: Provision of model solutions for tutorial questions. Tutorial/seminar feedback. Meetings with project supervisors to gain feedback on project development, direction and deliverables. Summative assessment methods will include: Case study exercises based on simulated and actual client briefs Critically selecting the content for a bibliography IT Planning and Scheduling software Presentations Reflective practice Time constraint exercises Research project The assessment methods above are considered to reflect closely many of the operations and practices that are in place in the Project Management industry. Students will receive timely feedback for summative/formative assessment to comply with Teesside University quality threshold standards. Page 5 of 31

Support for Students and Their Learning Induction Induction is seen as an important aspect of the programme and helps to prepare students for studying at Master s level and to familiarise themselves with the facilities and support mechanisms available to them. A shared induction day across the Master s programmes gives students the opportunity to meet other students on their programme and other Master s programmes. Students also have the opportunity to meet with the Programme Leader to obtain programme-specific Page 8 of 31
9 information. Induction (and early modules) will also provide support in the development of skills to support online learning as this will be a new method of studying for some students. Part of the induction programme for the Project Management students will involved other students from programmes within the Project Management cluster and will be an across schools event. Programme E-learning@tees Site All students on the programme will have access to the programme e-learning@tees site which will provide students with specific information about their programme; support communication between students and the programme team; and allow students to communicate with each other, thus supporting a sense of programme identity among the students. In addition, the programmes comprising the Project Management Cluster will share a joint programme support site which will unite all the programmes under one project management theme. Programme Handbook All students will be provided with a Programme Handbook at the start of the programme which will include key information for the students about their programme, the core and option modules they will be taking and the research project. The Handbook will also provide details of the support available to students. In-sessional English All international students are required to complete a diagnostic study skills test which will stream them into appropriate support with Academic English and Study Skills. The course is a free in-sessional academic study skills programme of up to 20 weeks with a maximum of 1 x 2 hour class a week. Academic Support Academic support is available throughout the programme from the Programme Leader, Module Leaders, and Module Tutors. Students will also be encouraged to access the Drop-in Study Skills Centre (DISSC) in the Library if they need additional support.

A number of mechanisms are also available within the School to provide additional support for students who are struggling to complete their programme, such as mitigating circumstances, and late submission; and students will be encouraged to access these when required, to enhance retention and progression Page 9 of 31
10 24. Distinctive Features Programme Structure The programme has been designed for project manager and engineering in all engineering/management industrial sector wishing to enhance their career and/or next step of their career towards project management and/or educational development. The programme will be of particular interest to graduates with a bachelor s degree and who are employed in, or have an interest in, the project management, Engineering co-ordinator or Management facilitator career. The most distinctive feature of the programme is the unique combination of the study of Engineering and management module with the equal emphasis on Project management; Engineering fields in which the Teesside University has long been internationally acknowledged. This distinctive mix enables graduates to gain employment in a wide range of industries but is particularly useful for employment in any engineering and/or management industries and/or organisation, such as those local to the University. Research informed Teaching and Learning In the last RAE for Engineering, 80% of the school s research was deemed internationally or national excellent. Research active staff fill key roles and help inform the delivery of the programme, either as course leader, subject group leader, module leaders or project supervisors. The high level of research activity within the School is embedded within the teaching. Course Resources The Project Management Engineering degree programme is supported by excellent laboratory facilities including, MS Project, ndccir 5D Tool laboratories as well as excellent library and computing facilities. External recognition The MSc programme (at level-7) has been designed to deliver industry appropriate graduates. The students are encouraged to register as APM member and use MSc programme as foundation for progression to Practitioner of the Association of Project Management. Support for Mastery Making the transition to Master s level study can be difficult for some students and support with making this transition is seen as an important element of the Project Management Programme. Support is provided during the programme induction and within the module Research and Study Skills. This support is designed to help students understand the requirements of academic study at Master s level; to develop their skills in academic writing and referencing, critical thinking and writing; the concept of ethical research and in the key IT skills such as information location. A formative assessment is carried out early within this module in order to help students develop their research and study skills, this is then built upon within the summative assessment for the module. International Student experience The Masters teaching staff is composed of academics from a variety of different countries that helps contribute to a truly international taught teaching experience for our students. A number of these academics have previously taught or worked in an international market and their experiences provide an invaluable insight into the international market place which is reflected in the development of taught modules This internationalisation of the School s programmes is further enhanced with the Page 10 of 31
11 industrial links nurtured within some Masters projects; where available students can undertake projects of an international nature either with an international industrial partner or a project based on an international theme. Across Schools Project Management Cluster The Project Management programme sits within a three School Project Management Cluster, this affords students a unique opportunity to experience a diverse range of staff and students throughout their studies as well as access to a wide range of teaching resources. The students within the cluster are encouraged (through a shared induction experience and shared modules) to develop their cluster identity and network within the different Project Management programmes.

This distinctive mix enables graduates to gain employment in a wide range of industries but is particularly useful for employment in any engineering and/or management industries and/or organisation, such as those local to the University. Research informed Teaching and Learning In the last RAE for Engineering, 80% of the school s research was deemed internationally or national excellent. Research active staff fill key roles and help inform the delivery of the programme, either as course leader, subject group leader or module leaders. The high level of research activity within the School is embedded within the teaching.
21 Course Resources The Project Management Engineering degree programme is supported by excellent laboratory facilities including, MS Project, ndccir 5D Tool laboratories as well as excellent library and computing facilities. External recognition The MSc programme (at level-7) has been designed to deliver industry appropriate graduates. The students are encouraged to register as APM member and use MSc programme as foundation for progression to Practitioner of the Association of Project Management. Support for Mastery Making the transition to PgD level study can be difficult for some students and support with making this transition is seen as an important element of the Project Management Programme. Support is provided during the programme induction and within the module Research and Study Skills. This support is designed to help students understand the requirements of academic study at PgD level; to develop their skills in academic writing and referencing, critical thinking and writing; the concept of ethical research and in the key IT skills such as information location. A formative assessment is carried out early within this module in order to help students develop their research and study skills, this is then built upon within the summative assessment for the module. International Student experience The PgD teaching staff is composed of academics from a variety of different countries that helps contribute to a truly international taught teaching experience for our students. A number of these academics have previously taught or worked in an international market and their experiences provide an invaluable insight into the international market place which is reflected in the development of taught modules. Across Schools Project Management Cluster The Project Management programme sits within a three School Project Management Cluster, this affords students a unique opportunity to experience a diverse range of staff and students throughout their studies as well as access to a wide range of teaching resources. The students within the cluster are encouraged (through a shared induction experience and shared modules) to develop their cluster identity and network within the different Project Management programmes.
