Assessment

Modules are assessed through a mixture of group work, coursework, project work and examinations; the weighting of each of these components will vary according to the academic requirements of the module. Coursework assignments are typically between 2,500 and 6,000 words in length and examinations are normally held at the end of the module.

You must pass your first year assessments in order to proceed to the second year. Degree classification is awarded on the basis of performance in assessments at the end of the second and final years.
