    The overall scope of the Chunnel project was increased significantly “due to change requests throughout the life of the project” (Anbari, et al.,2005, p. 14). There was not an effective change management process in place. Having a change management process would guarantee that any approved changes had corresponding funding. While the Chunnel project was considered complete, there were still outstanding scope items. This disconnect between scope changes and funding inevitably led to budget overruns.…

    The Role of Public-Private Partnerships in Driving Innovation L OUIS WITTERS, R EVITAL MAROM, and K URT STEINERT, Alcatel-Lucent The role of public-private partnerships in national economies The use by governments or public authorities of private contributions for public benefit is nearly as old as recorded history.1 For example, in the city-state of Athens in the 4th century BC, prominent citizens made major contributions in order to stage public festivals and religious events and to build public buildings and monuments. Some centuries later, when the Roman army conquered large parts of Europe and the Mediterranean region, civilians worked hand-in-hand with the army to exploit the new territories and build needed infrastructure. PPPs have a long history in the United States of America (USA) as well: the principle that government and political leaders should use and support private businesses—in order to develop scientif ic advancement and innovations for the benefit of the society—was well established at the time the country’s constitution was written.…

    (RO message on 3rd March 2010 to all academic staff refers) An important part of the assessment of this subject is a discipline specific scenario/case study analysis or report. This will assess the student’s ability to identify and analyze an ethical issue in the student’s own discipline area and thereby increase awareness of ethical issues in the student’s own research or professional area, their impact, and how to recognize, avoid or deal with them. Because this is a discipline-specific assignment, and will be researched and written from the perspective of the student’s own project or professional area within the discipline, each student’s assignment will be graded by their Chief Supervisor. Your involvement as Chief Supervisor is very important to ensure fair and appropriate grading. However, to ensure a common approach to grading and alignment with the academic level and intended learning outcomes (ILOs) of the subject, please read and follow the points below about this assignment, its submission and grading. For grading, please use the grading table supplied. 1. 2. The work should present a coherent and detailed written critique of a real case, or a description and analysis of possible scenario from the student’s discipline area. The submitted report should be ~1,500 words, and detail how such a case or scenario could or did occur, which ethical principles were ignored or contravened, the harm that could be or was caused at individual, profession, business and/or society levels. The case or issue can be suggested by you as Chief Supervisor or by your student, but you as Chief Supervisor should approve the student’s choice - and you will grade the work. The assignment should be submitted to you for grading by 6th June 2013. The student must reference the work using a consistent and acceptable format for your…
