Module Assessment
The MSc and PG Certificate are assessed through a combination of elements including coursework, projects and written paper examinations. All elements of the assessment must normally be completed in the same study session. The grade awarded for each module will be based on all of the elements of assessment.
The examinations take place locally twice per year in June and December. The coursework and projects are submitted through the virtual learning environment by the deadlines in the study calendar.
