Modules

Aside from those that are included in the Elective Module Portfolio, Year 1 modules in Economics are not available to affiliate students. Students who are interested in Second & Final Year modules are advised to check the Module List for more details, including pre-requisites and assumed knowledge (information may be subject to change). Affiliates based in other 果冻影院 departments can only take one module with us and should check the听Students in other departments听webpage for further information about how to sign up for economics electives.


Teaching and Assessment

Written coursework can take the form of exercises, problem sets, essays or projects and presentations 鈥 the amount required will differ between modules. Coursework may be discussed,听reviewed in tutorial classes and graded to guide to your progress. Submission of coursework and attendance at tutorial classes is mandatory.

Final grades are based largely on examination performance, but for some modules there is an assessed project or group work component and other modules may include or be wholly assessed by other forms of assessment such as mid-terms, quizzes, and take-home exams.

Students attending for the Fall Term only will take any final departmental examinations in December during the last week of term. Students attending for the Full Year or the Spring & Summer Terms will take final examinations in the main examination period, April 鈥 June. Applicants should note that students will be expected to be present at 果冻影院 for examinations and alternative arrangements are not permitted.
