Rationale and Purpose of the Module:

This 30 ECTS block is the third in a series of 3 Residencies that the students of Immersive Bioscience will undertake during the 3rd year of the course. Part 3 - this block will be taken by all Immersive Bioscience students MSc level students and form part of a year long residency when combined with Part 1 and Part 2 of Residency 3. The main focus of this block is completing and evaluation of project work started in Residency 3 Parts 1&2 and production of a report. Residency Part 3 contributes ECTS to the MSc programme

Syllabus:

The students will expand their knowledge of: 1. The process of a regulatory audit in the BioPharma industry 2. Use of data analytics to extract information from data 3. Technical writing 4. The structure of a BioPharma manufacturing facility, and the roles of different sections for example: Upstream, Downstream, MSAT, Fill Finish, Validation, QC, QA, Regulatory Affairs

Learning Outcomes:

Cognitive (Knowledge, Understanding, Application, Analysis, Evaluation, Synthesis)

On successful completion of this module students will be able to: 1. Analyze and evaluation the data generated in their project 2. Draw and support conclusions drawn from their project data 3. Propose further investigations on the basis of conclusions drawn 4. Construct a technical report summarizing results of the project undertaken 5. Differentiate between the roles of different sections of a BioPharma

Affective (Attitudes and Values)

On successful completion of this module, students will be able to: 1. Comply with appropriate safe regulations for working in their section of BioPharma 2. Show a mature attitude towards working in BioPharma 3. Report findings from their project work 4. Accept responsibility for the outcome of their work 5. Question results of data analytics

Psychomotor (Physical Skills)

On successful completion of this module, students will be able to: Compose and deliver a presentation summarizing the key findings of their project work in a seminar setting.

How the Module will be Taught and what will be the Learning Experiences of the Students:

Student experience Each student will be responsible for their work, giving the student AGENCY while being embedded in the team of their technical mentor, and they will participate in the full activities of the team. They will attend meetings in which the team plans and evaluates its work, and coordinates with other teams producing COLLABORATIVE graduates. They will have the chance to talk to and learn from many scientists and engineers on their team, not just their technical mentor, as well as those across the rest of the organization generating ARTICULATE and CURIOUS graduates. The technical mentor will supervised the daily practical activities. Additional specialist mentors will provide weekly information sessions on the non-practical aspects of the work, for instance explain the audit process and the GMP work environment in BioPharma generating KNOWLEDGEABLE graduates. Under the joint supervision of academic and industry mentors the students will participate in periodic, cohort-based webinars open to all partners that build up the student's PROFESSIONAL expertise in a systematic way. Student teams will present and discuss with the cohort the topics prepared since the previous seminar increasing CRITICAL THINKING. Students will maintain a "logbook" that tracks their progress on the learning outcomes. Faculty are ultimately responsible for grading, and will issue grades based on (a) the student logbook (b) quality of student led webinar produced as part of the residency and (c) a report evaluated in conjunction with the industry mentor. Residency 3 Part 3 is for MSc route student and the projects will be either Mentor-given or Student-selected projects (briefly outlined below). This module will comprise Months 9-12 of the extended Residency. Specialist mentors will provide 1-2 hours weekly of professionalization training in the form of information about the structure of a BioPharma facility and the roles of the different sections. Additional training will be consistent with Industry best-practice within the Residency host organization. In the first 10 weeks the student will perform activities for the specified tasks for their project and in the final weeks the student will finalize data analysis, draw final conclusions and prepare and submit their written report.
