Planned timetable:
This module provides the second extended period of work-based learning on the Data Science Graduate Apprenticeship programme. Apprentices spend seven months on the employer's premises, and are expected to travel to clients or other employer offices as and when required. During the module, apprentices work on a range of projects, selected by the employer to give apprentices the opportunity to develop professional practice and ability to work independently, and to apply and integrate technical knowledge, skills and behaviours in an industrial working environment. Projects are fully supervised at the employer; apprentice performance is assessed jointly by the immediate supervisor and a member of staff in the School of Computer Science.
Pre-requisite(s): Before taking this module you must pass CS3701
