Each module will be of four days duration, delivered as 2x2 days. Students will be taught the Certificate as a discreet cohort. Modules will match those already offered on the Loughborough MBA in terms of aims and objectives, learning outcomes and substantive content.
However, each module will use case studies, examples and illustrations drawn from engineering and construction contexts. Intakes are in February and September each year. Please see www.lboro.ac.uk/ecitb for more details.

Assessment is by exam (50%) and coursework (50%) for all modules except for Project Management which is 100% coursework. The assessment regime directly mirrors that of The Loughborough MBA. Coursework assessment will include workplace based coursework and other engineering/construction context applications.
