Academic description This is the largest Course in terms of Student Effort Hours in the BA Combined Studies and is designed to be identified as a period of focused study, probably taken in the final year of the degree. This focused period of study and the work which is developed should allow students to pull together strands from the degree which are relevant to them, so that they can focus on one major submission.
Syllabus Students are expected to build on existing skills and research and may choose workshops and supervisors to help them achieve their outcomes. Syllabus and course content will be determined by the student in consulation with his or her course leader. Students will attend group crits and tutorials to help them clarify and consolidate their thinking.
Transferable skills Skills in researching and developing substantial projects; independent working; consolidation of skills; practical skills in project management, communication, organisation; professionalism in selection and presentation
Reading list A reading list will be determined in relation to the student's individual project
Study Abroad Not entered
Study Pattern Students are expected to undertake 400 hours of study of which 50 are Contact hours and 150 are directed study. The remaining 200 hours are an opportunity for students to exercise a high degree of independence in self directed study.
