Assessment:
Students are assessed through a combination of assessment methods depending on the modules chosen. Each course has formal assessments which count towards your grade. Some courses may also include 'practice' assignments, which help you monitor progress and do not count towards your final grade. We aim to provide feedback on assignments and to release examination results within 15 working days.
Teaching:
Learning takes place through a combination of timetabled learning and independent study. Seminars and workshops enable you to discuss and develop your understanding of topics covered in lectures in smaller groups. You will also be able to meet your personal tutor. Timetabled learning may fall between 9am and 9pm depending on your courses and tutorials. Class sizes are normally 30-240 for lectures, and 15-30 for seminars/tutorials. Outside of timetabled sessions, you'll need to dedicate self-study time (around 20-30 hours per week) to prepare for coursework, presentations and exams. We are an experienced team of academics and industry professionals. Trained postgraduate researchers also contribute to seminar teaching with their latest research-led insight.
Careers:
Career opportunities are available in all sectors of business. You may pursue roles in training and development, personnel or human resource management, general management, or employee and industrial relations.
Other:
- The Greenwich Employability Passport Scheme will make your CV stand out to employers. It recognises your efforts in part-time work, volunteering, sports and societies during your studies.
