Synopsis
This unit will allow students to acquire to an intermediate standard analytical and problem-solving skills needed to be able to identify and respond to legal issues they are likely to encounter as industry professionals engaged in building, engineering and infrastructure projects. It will examine the law which forms a core part of construction projects, enabling students to recognise when legal issues are likely to arise and to respond in a timely and effective manner. Problem-based learning, an intentional, inquiry-based teaching approach, will teach both declarative knowledge and functioning skills, with the latter including communication and collaboration skills.
