Topic 2019:
With explicit reference to the theories and concepts studied in this module, analyse the implications of a ‘no-deal’ Brexit on the strategies of UK international businesses in the automotive sector.

You will need to apply the theories and concepts covered in the module to this particular given topic. In order to help you make the connections and give you feedforward in how to apply the relevant literature, you will participate in student-led seminars centred on group presentations. In the seminar of your choice, your group (up to 4 members) will lead the seminar by explaining and analysing the seminar’s issue, which should take 30 minutes. Other members of the seminar group will then have the opportunity to ask you questions and to seek clarification on particular points. All relevant theories and concepts will be covered within the seminar group presentations.

You will then be assessed on your individual essay on the main given topic which should reflect all the group presentations and discussions in the seminars as well as your independent reading on the subject. You can achieve high grades in this assignment only if you have researched your topics thoroughly and fully applied the relevant theories in a logical analysis of the issue. Suggested outlines for the presentations on each topic and additional assessment criteria and marking rubric are available on Course resources.
