How you're assessed
Modules are assessed through a combination of examinations and coursework. You’ll sit examinations at the end of each semester, which are typically in-person written assessments, usually completed over 2 or 2.5 hours. You’ll complete coursework throughout the semester, typically class tests, programming assignments or small projects.
You’ll create a proposal, deliver a presentation with a Q&A, and submit a final dissertation.
