The examining schemes are approved from year to year, and are therefore liable to variation. Approved schemes are made available to students at the start of each academic year.
Assessment of each module is by way of a written examination paper, project or essay work, or a combination of these methods. Examinations will be in January for Michaelmas Term modules and in April for Lent Term modules. Each module accounts for 10% of the overall mark and the dissertation accounts for 20% of the overall mark.
