Skills Developed Problem Solving Technical Skills Essay Writing Research Referencing Presentation Group Work

Success The FBE has enabled me to develop my skills in terms of group work in which communication and task distribution are essential to form a great project. During the undergraduate program, a lot of group work is required and through the FBE I was prepared to tackle them. My writing skills have been enhanced through essay writing on topics related closely to the built environment. The undergraduate program requires a lot of individual essays and the FBE has made me more confident in writing them. Time management is another vital skill learnt in FBE which is essential in the rest of the undergraduate program.

Success? 2010 - 60% with first or 2:1 2011 – 75% with first or 2:1
