How You'll Learn

How You'll Learn

We want you to take an active role in your learning, not simply sit in a lecture theater. You will have opportunities to take part in or observe role-play activities in recruitment and selection, negotiations, mock tribunals, problem-solving, managing change issues, and working on the implications for HRM with regards to changes in legislation, policy and employment trends.

Teaching Contact Hours 

As a full-time undergraduate student, you will study modules totalling 120 credits each academic year. This is made up of teaching contact hours, guided and independent study.

Guided and independent study:

Throughout your studies, you will be expected to spend time in guided and independent study to make up the required study hours per module. You'll be digging deeper into topics, review what you've learnt and complete assignments. This can be completed around your personal commitments. As you progress through your studies, you'll spend more time in independent study.

Assessment

This course will be assessed using a variety of methods which will vary depending upon the module.

Assessment methods may include:

  • phase tests
  • essays
  • group coursework
  • individual and group presentations
  • reports
  • projects
  • video pitches
  • simulations
  • critical reflections
  • role play

The Coventry University Group assessment strategy ensures that our courses are fairly assessed and allows us to monitor student progression towards achieving the intended learning outcomes.
