This knowledge is then synthesised in a final year capstone research project. The programme is designed with an interdisciplinary focus. This is reflective of the opportunities and challenges that await graduates as well as the changing needs of today’s business environment. Modules comprise of formative and summative assessment as well as group work and presentations.
