Assessment method
Formal assessments for all theory modules are written examinations, coupled with written coursework, both contributing to the final module mark. Formative assessment is also provided. Because the degree programme uses stand-alone practical modules, these are also assessed by coursework and a practical examination. This is held in the laboratory, usually in the final week of term and is problem-solving in nature, based on that term’s work. The final year research project is assessed by a significant piece of written work and an oral examination.
