Year 1, Academic year 2013/14, Starting month: September
Notes: Early in the second semester all students will be required to identify a supervisor and a research project. They will write a research proposal framed around the project in the format of a grant proposal, including a lay summary, background and research plan and identification of risks. This will form the basis for their laboratory research and will ensure that they are fully familiar with the framework of their research project before they begin work in the laboratory. The research proposal will form part of the assessment for the dissertation.
For those who will exit with the Diploma in Animal Biosciences, either from choice or because they fail to achieve the grades to progress to the MSc will take the diploma dissertation VESC11009.Conditions for the research project and dissertation will be the same as for the MSc dissertation except that both will be shorter.
