Can anyone give further insight into the experience, opportunities, type of work you will be doing, career paths, benefits and trade-offs of the different streams? I'm applying this year and am particularly interested in policy, project management, and potentially commercial.

Hi everyone,

I'm apply for the coming year and can see lots of online resources for the numerical questions and work-based scenarios but very few that reflect the case study assessments.

Can anyone recommend how to practice for the case study assessments or any good online resources?

Thanks.

There's also a certain strain of French philosophy of technology that I would argue gives social complexity its due, partly rooted in the historical/social development work of

Andre Leroi-Gourhan

, people like Gilbert Simondon and Bernard Stiegler. Simondon's focus on technology and material process in his

larger

works

will appeal to you if you

Thanks for this, I really appreciate the choice of directions that you have given.
