Description
The 'Development and Capital Projects' module will examine the development process from both theoretical and practical perspectives. We specifically focus on the fundamental constructs that define real estate-related development as a distinct activity and capital projects as an enterprise within an international context. The module aims to present theoretical viewpoints on the major stakeholder groups – consumers, production, and the public – within an international context.
Module Objectives:
Teaching will articulate theoretical positions on the three major stakeholder groups – consumers, production, and the public – within an international context. This discussion is framed within a broad management perspective for decision-making and judgment. Seminar topics include the general background of the development process, conceptual models of development, stakeholder engagement and management, regulatory frameworks, project idea and analysis, development finance concepts, project concept and feasibility studies, project management and operations, and two case studies.
The module adopts a problem-based learning approach as the primary method for addressing the learning challenges in this multidisciplinary area of development and capital projects. This approach allows participants to explore research-based management concepts within a practical problem framework.
