A really full-on unit, which needed to be worked on nearly every day to finish the tasks on time. A program we used for the two reports, Design Expert (a DoE software) was a pain in my butt, but I survived nonetheless. As with the other units I had in semester 1, 2019, this unit was pretty much filled with groupwork, with only a small smattering of individual work.
The DoE template that is your final one takes forever to make- I recommend working on it at least every day or two from when you start making it!

Note: this subject is still relevant to the new degree- its new code is BPS3331 from semester 1, 2020!
