Course summary

The purpose of the Extended Project Qualification (EPQ) is to provide additional stretch and challenge by offering students an opportunity to produce an extended piece of work in an area in which they have a particular interest. The course allows students to embark on largely self-directed projects, by taking responsibility for the choice and design of an individual project (or an individual role in a group project). You will need to select a topic, plan, research and implement your project, and produce a written report and presentation at the end. The EPQ will involve, a common core of lectures, mentoring with the coordinator to identify a viable project, meetings with your chosen supervisor and independent work to complete the project.
