这是一篇来自英格兰的关于培养学生对工程的广泛社会和环境方面的认识，并培养学生对工程专业生涯的社会和环境方面认识的工程作业代写
Assignment BRIEF
The module is to develop students’ awareness of a broad range of social and environmental aspects of engineering and to develop students’ appreciation of the social and environmental aspects of a professional career in engineering. This is different in character from most of your studies to date, and the assignment is different from most of your other assignments.
You are to undertake private study informed by lectures, seminars, your own literature review, professional guest speakers, and a professional dialogue with your project supervisor if possible. The professional dialogue will consist of a series of one-to-one meetings between you and your project supervisor through Microsoft Teams arranged at your mutual convenience for each of the topics delivered. Your electronic portfolio is evidence of your study where you produce series of short-condensed statement for each of the topics as evidence of your own study and comments from weekly sessions which you will have uploaded to Blackboard for topics as listed below. For final assessment you are to choose one of these topics and write an essay approximately 2000 words this is the summative part of your assessment, and it will be marked for 100% of the module mark.
The purpose of the electronic submission of individual condensed topics for your portfolio is to support and inform the professional dialogue. It will justify evidence of your private study/research.
- Professional engineering institutions
- Engineering ethics and professional codes of practice
- Engineering career pathways
- Technological developments and their impact on society
- Standardisations and the importance of engineering standards
- Commercial and economic aspects of engineering activity
- Intellectual property and intellectual property rights
- Influence of legislation on engineering activity
- OR a topic of your own after seeking agreement with your module lead
The topics above must be your own work and researched by yourself. It is not acceptable to find a suitable image/comparison table online and use this verbatim even if it is correctly referenced you are required to demonstrate your understanding of the area.

Remember that you have limited words so ensure that you “stick to the point” and do not got into detail on superficial elements.
Ensure that you include references when discussing technical facts and statements on the technology used. You must reference all your sources of information. These should be cited in the appropriate part of the report and fully identified to meet the Harvard referencing standard in a list at the end. Website articles must be properly referenced to be considered as legitimate references.
