Module overview
Each student undertakes an investigation which includes both practical and theoretical components. The theory component will consist of a critical review of the literature relating to the proposed experimental component of the project. The fieldwork is related to the appropriate degree programme. Each student is assigned to an appropriate supervisor who will advise on and direct the project and the preparation of a written report. The aim of this module is to allow students to carry out an extensive field-based project on a special topic related to his/her main area of study, and to complete a literature survey on a topic related to this area of research.
This module is one of the set of modules that satisfies the RSoB’s requirement for all students to pass a module which contributes a capstone experience to meet their standard for the award of an accredited degree. This requirement is considered to be a competence standard under the Equality Act 2010."
