To identify and critically evaluate the theoretical and practical concepts of risk and value within the context of engineering project management. To critically evaluate the framework within which project participants can operate appropriate risk and value management strategies. THIS IS ALSO RELEVANT TO ENGM60032. ILO 1 - Demonstrate an advanced level of knowledge and understanding of risk identification, analysis and response.ILO 2 - Analyse the context within which an engineering project executed in order to  develop risk management strategies given in the prevailing commercial, economic and technical conditionsILO 3 - Skills and creativity required to produce effective risk management solutions based on the robust analysis of data.   Syllabus: Lecture 1: Introduction to the Unit, Lecture 2: What is Risk Management?

In this unit, a formative work assessment is submitted and feedback comments are made available to students via Turnitin within Blackboard. Additional formative feedback is available to students through the following means:Attending lectures, joining discussions about case studies and doing short work tasks set within the lecture session. The lecturer will reply to individual questions at the end of each lecture session as required.The lecturer will provide brief replies to your e-mailed enquiries. The lecturer will provide feedback messages to the whole class via Blackboard if the point that you have raised could be of benefit to the whole class.
