Method of Assessment
Teamwork is an integral part of the professional life of a Software Engineer. This award provides opportunities
to learn in practice about the benefits and challenges of working in teams. Because of the large contribution of
the final year to the degree classification, students prefer not to engage in teamwork at Level 6 because of the
perceived risk to their grades. Therefore, this award does not provide assessed teamwork at Level 6.
