5 3. Programme Description 3.1 Overview PROGRAMME STRUCTURE: The programme consists of three types of modules: (1) generalist, (2) specialist, and (3) optional. The generalist modules are shared with other programmes. These involve topics such as Decision Analysis for Managers, Project Planning and Management and Strategy Making. The specialist modules form the core subject element of the MSc Logistics and Global Operations programme and consist of three modules: Global Supply Strategies, Logistics and Operations Management, and Procurement and Supply Chains. Finally, students can choose one optional module. Illustrative examples of optional modules are: Dynamic Systems Modelling, Humanitarian Logistics, and Teams & Leadership. All students are required to undertake a final dissertation worth 60 Credits. Our approach to dissertation is to facilitate innovative approaches and diverse pathways to the final assessed piece of work; in effect the dissertation is an extended research project. Optional modules will run as far as at least 10 students select them. Timetabling arrangements may limit the availability of modules to some students. As the options reflect staff's research interests, they may alter over time due to staff availability. OVERVIEW: The managerial discipline associated with Logistics involves the study of key business drivers to improve organisational performance within competitive and complex landscapes. Barriers between academics, and business and social actors are dissipating leading to the recognition of the need to build bridges between theory and practice, and to acknowledge that the discipline should be treated as a distinct management operation and function in its own right. Consequently, interest in the professional study of Logistics continues to grow in private and public sector organizations. MSc in Logistics and Global Operations is designed for students who are interested in exploring the subject as it develops in the context of relevant contemporary theory and research. The programme provides students with a framework for improving their own professional practice and thereby their suitability for working in this area in current or future organisations. This is achieved by the systematic acquisition of advanced academic knowledge coupled with appropriate support to explore and develop high-level skills in the field of Logistics and is intended to act as a catalyst for change at both the personal and organisational levels. Moreover, this programme matches the professional and research interests of staff with the motivation of students to extend their own competence in academic understanding and professional practice. This MSc Logistics and Global Operations focuses on the development of competence in the areas of creative thinking, reflective debate and practice, and action-centred management and it is delivered in a continuous programme. On this, evidence students will be shown include: A growing interest in logistics in the workplace. A growing demand for academically qualified logisticians within the labour market suggesting interest in this area. It can also be seen from the supply-side where many organisations are seeking labour. An interest in logistics as a high level skills issue, which is focused resolving value chain issues Page 5/24
6 and challenges throughout the whole organisation. The impact of operations functions, and logistics in particular, in different sizes and structures organisations may take, micro-businesses to big corporations. 3.2 Aims and Objectives The MSc Logistics and Global Operations degree programme at the University of Lincoln provides students with the opportunity to explore practice in the context of relevant contemporary theory and research in the field of Logistics Management from an international perspective. The programme seeks to develop the strategic vision of the students focusing on the development of creative thinking and proactive management. The programme recognises that all organisations, local and global, are constantly changing and seeks to ensure that managers develop the necessary knowledge and competencies to cope with this. The programme of study allows for context and situation specific learning. The specific aims of the programme are to provide: An opportunity for study at an advanced level into the theoretical and practical bases of logistics. A framework to facilitate the acquisition of knowledge, management skills and experience that will enhance the students ability to contribute to their own organisations operational effectiveness in logistics. A framework within which a student can negotiate tasks to suit his/her own individual needs and areas of experience. The opportunity to engage in reflective debate with international peers and academics as to theory and practice. A foundation for future advanced academic and professional development. Drawing on the University of Lincoln's 'Student as a Producer' strategy, the programme has been designed to utilise the research interests of staff in the area of operations and logistics, and that of students who want to understand and address the managerial challenges and opportunities associated with their own careers. 3.3 Variations to Standard Regulations and Guidance None Page 6/24

9 5. Learning, Teaching and Assessment Strategies 5.1. Learning and Teaching Strategy The teaching and learning strategy adopted within Lincoln Business School derives from and builds on the University s plan and overall 'Student as a Producer' approach, as it applies to the post-experience, post-graduate nature of learning. Students are encouraged and expected to play an active role in their individual learning as they propose and agree assessment topics with their module tutors, which are focused on the direct linkage between the theoretical and practical contexts. Thus, this degree programme makes a significant contribution to the University s mission to provide our students with the best life and employment prospects and to equip them to become lifelong learners. The teaching and learning strategy adopted within MSc Logistics and Global Operations programme derives from the School s Teaching and Learning Strategy. The key Lincoln Business School strategic objectives driving the Teaching and Learning Strategy are: To provide all students with a high quality teaching and learning environment. To constantly review and improve the quality of the teaching and learning processes. To improve student achievements and value added indicators. To increase in graduate employment. To attain high ratings from professional bodies and external agencies. To improve the reputation and external positioning of the University. To implement a learning and teaching strategy where methods in each module are those most appropriate for distance learners. To review and evaluate learning, teaching and assessment methods in order to ensure that they meet the learning needs of all students. Teaching staff aspire to motivate students, to encourage the sharing of skills and insights, and to develop independence in study. Learning situations are varied within and across programmes, reflecting the diversity of learning resources and the integration of learning and teaching processes. The modules will utilise methods of teaching and learning that are appropriate to the learning outcomes of the MSc Logistics and Global Operations degree programme. Although a proportion of the contact time will be spent in didactic teaching situations, more emphasis will be placed upon collaborative learning, with the use of the Student workgroup as a resource for learning. There will be group discussion of practical management situations and problems, real project collective development, and the use of case studies, simulation materials and student's own experiences. An added feature of this course is that where practicable successful business people with a specialism in Operations and Logistics will be asked to contribute to the delivery of the programme through a series of guest lectures and industrial visits. The underpinning values that guide MSc Logistics and Global Operations stem from Lincoln Business School s commitment to satisfy students needs and to contribute societal challenges through the overall 'Student as a Producer' strategy. The overall delivery strategy derives from the University s aim to produce independent, enquiring, knowledgeable graduates who enjoy learning, are enterprising, employable, self-aware, seek career and other opportunities in life, and make a positive contribution to society. Key to the implementation of these aims is the University-wide initiative to embed research-engaged teaching as the organising principle for learning at Lincoln, through an institutional project, Student as a Producer ( In essence, the very nature of 'Student as a Producer' is embedded within the programme through the promotion of active and research-engaged teaching and learning, as well as through the production of topical assignment submissions that will be based on on-going, up to the minute scenarios that have been Page 9/24
10 identified by the student in direct consultation with his tutor. Each module typically consists of two or three weekly teaching hours over a teaching term of 12 weeks. The class hours consist of a combination of lectures, seminars, tutorials, and study visits depending on the nature of the module Assessment Strategy Lincoln Business School believes that as wide a range of assessment strategies as possible should be used. The intention being to use the most appropriate assessment strategies and within that to encourage innovation and diversity of approach. The key objective is that the Intended Learning Outcomes of the programme are, tested through a summative assessment process. However, formal assessment is not the only vehicle for measuring success. The Lincoln Business School strongly believes in a progressive model of formative assessment. Consequently, students will progress through this Programme in a continuous process from a dependent learning state to one of independence. At the end of the degree programme students will be much more autonomous and critically self-reflective individuals equipped with a set of skills, which will enable them to operate successfully in society and the world of work. Students are asked to produce a combination of evaluating methods, from assignments that are the equivalent of ,500 words, to group presentations. A variety of academic writing approaches are also encouraged with students producing academic reports, essays, and proposals as appropriate, within the auspice of the 'Student as a Producer' strategy. Moreover, topics for these assignments are informed by current topical research and practical logistics challenges as faced by the teaching team and student body. For the Dissertation module, students will produce a research dissertation totalling 20,000 words. Other forms of gaining the MSc degree will be available, involving the development of a real project or a start-up venture. The nature and inherent flexibility of this type of Masters programme means that all modules are designated at one academic level. All modules are participative in that attendance adds to the overall learning experience. Group and individual work as well as proactive peer review are used to encourage student learning through participation. On completion of the modular assessment activity, as part of the summative feedback, tutors indicate the level of student performance in each module. This provides a basis for the dialogue and reflection that takes place as the student develops and progresses through the Programme. Page 10/24
