Content
The work integrated learning strategies adopted in this unit include student-initiated through reflective and action learning and or applied practice-based experiences including professional creative work at approved venues. The application of these learning strategies is embedded in a guided program of assessable components that give students the opportunity to develop generic skills in career-related skills, aligned to their course discipline, as well as developing the specific skills and knowledge required of a built environment professional in practice. Involving formal learning, this practice-based experience for students is intended to enable the development and advancement of knowledge and skills typically sought from graduate professional built environment practitioners.
