| Description:
| Aims: This residential school aims to: (1) provide the student with an opportunity to apply the skills learned in the first four modules to a practical real life case study, and to improve their practical knowledge by attending talks given by practitioners working in each of the relevant environmental fields; (2) provide the student with a deeper appreciation of the practical application of topics covered in the IEM 'technical' units: Life Cycle Assessment, Clean Technology 1 & 2 and Energy Management. Learning Outcomes: After successfully completing this unit students should be able to put the academic content of the previous units and the academic content of the 'technical' units into a 'real world' context and demonstrate their application of life cycle thinking to an unfamiliar case set in a realistic business context. Skills: Team and presentation skills. Content: Three lectures/discussion sessions led by consultants/practitioners in EIA, Audit and CBA; and an integrated case study exercise involving all three techniques ending with a presentation given by the students final day. Five lectures/discussion groups lead by practitioners/consultants in LCA, Clean Technology I and II, Energy Management, Risk Management; and an integrated case study exercise involving all four techniques, and culminating in a presentation given by the students on the final day. |
