Resource-Related Challenges in a Selected Country (STREAM) — Term Paper: India's Energy Sector, Coal Dependence and the Transition to Solar and Storage
This first-semester term paper for the STREAM programme takes a single country and a single resource sector and examines the challenges that arise where the two meet. India was selected for its energy sector — a case where scale, growth rate and an entrenched coal base make the tension between development need and environmental limit unusually sharp. The paper is written as an academic scientific text of roughly twenty pages, structured across the four sections the brief specifies and supported throughout by peer-reviewed literature, institutional reports and official statistical sources. The opening section establishes the country context: geographical position and climatic variation, population size and distribution, the shape and growth trajectory of the economy, development status against recognised indicators, and why the energy sector in particular is decisive for the country's near-term development path. The second section analyses the current status of the resource itself. Domestic coal reserves and their geographical concentration are set against renewable potential, particularly solar irradiance across the western and southern states. Production and consumption figures are traced over recent years, the import dependency for crude oil, gas and coking coal is quantified, and the major pressures are identified — demand growth outpacing capacity addition, the financial condition of distribution utilities, grid integration limits for variable generation, and the storage gap that constrains how far solar can displace baseload. The third section covers infrastructure and value chains. It describes the generation fleet, transmission and distribution network, and the logistics moving coal from pithead to plant, then follows the value chains attached to the resource — mining, power generation, equipment manufacturing and the growing domestic solar module and cell industry. Key stakeholders are mapped across central and state government, regulators, public and private generators, distribution companies, industrial consumers and the mining workforce whose livelihoods a transition directly affects. The final section addresses environmental problems and their connections to resource use. Ambient air quality and its public health burden, the water demand of thermal generation in already water-stressed basins, land degradation and displacement around mining regions, ash management and greenhouse gas emissions are each examined as consequences of the existing energy system rather than as separate issues. The section closes on future developments and risks: the plausible trajectories for renewable capacity and storage deployment, the stranded asset question for recently built thermal plants, and what a socially just transition would require of policy.

International Entrepreneurship / Business Management
International Entrepreneurship: Start-up Business Idea and International Market Expansion Pitch
This group presentation assessment requires students to develop and pitch an internationally oriented entrepreneurial business idea. Students may create their own start-up or select an existing small or medium-sized enterprise or family firm. Large multinational organisations are not permitted. The selected business must have an international dimension, either from its inception or through credible plans to undertake international activities such as overseas sourcing, manufacturing, selling or market expansion within approximately three to five years. The presentation requires students to clearly explain the proposed business idea, its products or services and the customer value proposition. Students must demonstrate how a viable market opportunity or gap has been identified and explain how the proposed venture intends to capture that opportunity. Consideration may also be given to social entrepreneurship and the potential contribution of the business to local communities. A significant part of the assessment examines how an entrepreneurial venture can overcome the practical challenges associated with start-up development and internationalisation. Students should evaluate resource scarcity and the role of entrepreneurial networks or open innovation, propose appropriate funding mechanisms such as angel investment, venture capital or crowdfunding, and explain how the venture's intellectual property could be protected. Students must also present a credible international growth strategy. This includes identifying suitable foreign markets, analysing competitors, selecting appropriate market-entry modes, defining target customer segments and developing suitable marketing and promotional strategies. All arguments should be supported with reliable evidence, with sources cited directly within the presentation and a reference list included. The assessment places emphasis on knowledge and application of entrepreneurship theories, clarity and focus of the business idea, quality and reliability of supporting materials, professional presentation delivery and the group's ability to respond confidently during questioning. All group members are expected to contribute to the work and presentation. The accompanying Group Engagement Form specifically records whether members contributed equally and allows agreed contribution percentages to be documented. Reference style: enter Not specified rather than automatically selecting Harvard. The brief requires reliable sources, slide citations and a reference list, but the uploaded assessment documents do not prescribe a named referencing system. If the actual library file you are uploading is the FourGaz presentation sample, rather than a new 2025/26 submission, use the title “FourGaz: International Entrepreneurship Start-up and Market Expansion Strategy” and do not label it 2025/26, because that sample is dated 25 November 2019.

Advanced Quality Engineering: Gauge R&R, Process Capability and Statistical Process Control Analysis
This Advanced Quality Engineering coursework requires students to apply quantitative quality-management techniques to a realistic manufacturing scenario involving the production of precision components. The assessment combines measurement system analysis, process capability evaluation and Statistical Process Control (SPC) to determine whether measurement and manufacturing processes are sufficiently reliable and capable of meeting specified engineering requirements. The first stage focuses on Gauge Repeatability and Reproducibility (Gauge R&R). Students are provided with measurements from ten components, with each component measured twice by two different operators. Using the supplied data and the module's Gauge R&R calculator, students must assess whether the measurement system is capable of evaluating a critical component dimension specified between 115 mm and 116 mm. This section tests the ability to evaluate measurement variation and determine the suitability of a measuring system for quality-control purposes. The second task requires comparison of two CNC machining processes. Historical batch measurements from a Honzaki CNC vertical milling machine are compared with measurements from a replacement Kawda CNC vertical milling machine. Students must calculate the Cp and Cpk process capability indices for both processes, interpret the results and determine which process is better suited to producing components within specification. Recommendations for process improvement and responsibility for corrective action must also be considered. The final task applies Statistical Process Control. Students must construct appropriate X-bar and R control charts, calculate the relevant control limits, plot process performance and investigate potential out-of-control conditions to identify differences between components produced by the two machines. Supporting module material emphasises the distinction between common and special causes of variation, interpretation of abnormal control-chart patterns, process capability and the use of SPC as a feedback mechanism for preventing defective output and improving manufacturing quality. Reference style: keep this as Not specified in the portal. The handbook requires external material to be properly acknowledged, but the uploaded guideline does not prescribe Harvard, APA, IEEE or another named referencing system.
