A mining or infrastructure agreement as a public document: who is paid, who is employed, and the grievance. Fully online. Not a company or state appointment. Cities such as a mine town you can describe, not a named concession you do not have. MSc Community Agreements is taught as one award, not a list of unrelated modules. The published length is 18 months, and the credit total is 36. Students move from Obligations through Obligations; Jobs; Grievance; Summary; Gap; File, and finish on File. Each course has a question, a method, and a submission. In this field, students apply the method of the subject to a defined problem and defend the result. Reading is a core text, a case or dataset, and a critique. The artefact a marker expects is a submission that shows the method, the evidence, and the limit of the claim. The award is built so that a graduate can do the following in practice: List the obligations Separate jobs from payments Design a grievance Teaching assumes the student can read a source, attempt a problem before the seminar, and revise after feedback. Attendance at live seminars is part of the design. The capstone or final course must use the methods of the earlier courses; a project that ignores them does not pass. The pages for each course name the topics that are examined. Those topics are the syllabus. A brochure line is not a substitute for them.
The credit total on this page is the sum of the courses in the curriculum. Assessment is the work named on each course.

| CAG501 | Obligations Obligations (CAG501) is a 6-credit course on MSc Community Agreements, with 60 notional learning hours. By the end, students can apply the method of the subject to a defined problem and defend the result, using Obligations as the working context rather than a generic management example. The course is taught in three movements. First, students establish the terms and the decision the course is about. Second, they apply the method to a case, dataset, text, or design and compare it with a weaker alternative. Third, they revise the work after feedback and state what the conclusion cannot support. Preparation uses a core text, a case or dataset, and a critique. Seminar time is for the decision, not for reading the materials aloud. Assessment is a submission that shows the method, the evidence, and the limit of the claim. A pass requires a clear method, evidence a marker can check, and an explicit limit. Credit is not awarded for summary alone.
