Deadlines (26-27)
All assignments are submitted via the Moodle Coursework site. Prior to submitting your assignment, you will need to complete a Declaration Form, confirming that you have abided by the department Policy on Plagiarism and use of AI.
Leading up to each assignment, you will need to submit a topic form, providing details on what subject you wish to write on. In addition to your proposed title and a brief description, you will need to confirm which module your essay will be linked to, and the member of staff who has agreed to act as your supervisor.
You can still make changes to your essay title after you have submitted your form, but must declare any major changes before the revision deadline.
The below dates are still subject to change.
