Each full unit will be examined by one three-hour unseen written paper. Each half unit will be examined by one two-hour unseen written paper. Examinations by written paper will take place on one occasion each year, normally commencing in May.
In addition to the formal assessment outlined above, students are strongly encouraged to submitTutor Marked Assignments (TMAs). TMAs offer students the opportunity to complete assignments for informal assessment. These assignments are completed on a voluntary basis and do not contribute to formal assessment, but provide an excellent opportunity for students to obtain tutorial feedback on their understanding and interpretation of the subject matter.
