Pre-requisite: 70061
Co-requisite: 70712
This is the second of two units which address, in a generic sense, the practice of professional engineering and professional surveying. Like unit 70061 this unit is concerned with aspects of the work undertaken, the performance required and the responsibilities borne by the professional engineer and professional surveyor which are essentially independent of the engineering or surveying discipline: to a large extent these are non-technical matters. As the final practice unit in the B Eng and B Surv degrees this unit is particularly concerned with interaction with the professions at large. A major part of all engineering and surveying project work is the appropriate communication of the outcome. This is the major topic of this unit and provides guidance and experience in both verbal (seminar) and written (thesis) reporting skills. Hence this unit is to be undertaken to complement the unit 70712 Project and in the final year of the B Eng or B Surv degree. The presentation of a major seminar on the work undertaken during the final-year project is a requirement for the completion of this unit.
