Assessment

With the exception of 'Research methods' all modules are assessed by two assignments (of about 2,500 words each) and one three-hour unseen written examination. 'Research methods' is assessed by a dissertation of not more than 10,000 words (excluding the bibliography and appendices).

The grade awarded on each individual module will be based on the mark obtained in the written examination and on the combined mark for the assignments. The examination mark and the combined mark of the assignments will be weighted on the scale 70:30. If you fail an examination at the first sitting, you will be allowed one further attempt after which your registration will cease.

Exams, both overseas and in the UK, take place once a year in September/October. They are normally held in a student's country of residence, using the existing system of overseas examinations authorities which the University of London operates for all its External students. Exams for students in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland are normally held in London.
