About this Unit
Students will gain real-life experience in developing new products or services within a company or organisation and be exposed to some of the decision-making processes that affect the development process of consumer products or services. This is whilst experiencing the multidisciplinary nature of the interaction of all those involved in the product development process from the conception of the idea to the introduction of a new product or service to market. Students use this opportunity to test the validity of the concepts studied in various course units to date in a real life situation and develop a sense of a company's "culture".
