Description
The dissertation is the culmination of all activities in this programme so far, where students find an opportunity to bring all their learning, knowledge and skills into a substantial project. This is a unique, postgraduate- level experience, which is intended to be a platform for further academic or professional work in the future. The module equips students to plan and conduct a research topic of their own choosing. Students are required to submit a 10000-word dissertation on a subject agreed with the Course Director and their assigned tutor. Dissertations are produced between May and September and will be supervised by the most appropriate member of staff for the topic in question.
The dissertation topic is a free choice, subject to the principal requirements of every piece of research – it must have a well-defined problem, a literature review and a body of data. The dissertation length is a maximum of 10,000 words (including footnotes, but not including the abstract, tables, references or appendices)
