The MA programme has developed links with a number of institutions which allow MA candidates to receive work experience and training, or to pursue research at the Holocaust Educational Trust, the Imperial War Museum's new Holocaust exhibition, at Beth Shalom Holocaust Education Centre, and at the London Metropolitan Archives. The basic means of assessment for the MA degree in Hebrew and Jewish Studies, and for the MA degree in Holocaust Studies, are set out above. The submission deadline for all written work except the thesis is the end of the first week of the third term. All work, including essays, written assignments and the dissertation, is marked on a numerical scale. Marks at 70 or above are considered to be in the range of 'distinction'.
