Prof J.A. Edgington Projects as a whole are coordinated by the Course Organiser who may help with the choice of project. Individual projects are supervised by Project Supervisors. All students reading for an MSci degree must do a project course in their final year.
Projects extend over two semesters.
Progress will be closely monitored and forms an integral part of the coursework assessment. The first semester report, of about 2,000 words, and the final report , which should not exceed a maximum of 75 pages, should conform t o the Guidelines for Writing Essays and Reports in this Handbook. On no account should a substantial part of the report consist of directly quoted material, and no section should be quoted from any source without attribution. A perusal of previous years' reports and of scientific research papers is also recommended. Students must submit two copies of their reports to the Departmental Office and obtain a receipt.
