  Teaching and Assessment
  The delivery of the modules will draw upon two main different
  learning approaches: face to face and online teaching methods.
  The face to face teaching will take the form of lectures and
  seminars. The lectures provide you with key opportunities to
  develop your ‘critical thinking’ of the subject, to provide the
  framework for your independent study and to reinforce what
  you have already learnt. Seminars are designed to enable you
  to seek clarification of material covered in the lectures and
  practice the management tools employed within the financial
  services industry using case studies, open discussions and
  other forms of learning. The Blackboard system will be used
  to support delivery of this programme. The system allows
  you to practice online exercises, to have access to various
  case studies and to test your knowledge of the subject using
  online assessments.
  
  The purpose of the assessment strategy is to provide both
  formative guidance and summative assessment at Masters level.
  The assessment criteria of the modules embody this learning
  approach, as they test personal evaluation skills as well as
  the ability to work collaboratively in applying knowledge and
  techniques. The research methods and final project module
  integrates the learning cycle, giving you responsibility on
  a specific project, where the aim and the correspondent
  assessment criteria are to reach a professional level in
  researching, self developing and reporting.
  
  Associated Careers
  You are expected to develop career management skills
  in parallel to the educational skills. The aim is to prepare
  graduates with positive and critical way of thinking towards
  leadership. There is high emphasis on self-awareness, planning,
  leadership, negotiation, decision-making, communication and
  dealing with uncertainty. Graduates are expected to be able to
  transfer these skills to the employing organisation.
