Title and Supervision Process

Students will be divided into groups of 6 students and will be informed about their groups by the academic lead on the course at the start of the second semester. Please note that the number of students in each group could vary depending on the overall students’ number on the programme. 

  • The title and the content of the research project will be decided in collaboration between each group and the academic lead at the start of the second semester.
  • Each group will be assigned a monitor to guide them throughout the research period.
  • Each group will be asked to give a 15-minutes group presentation about their project in a meeting in last week of July (see dates above). In the same meeting each student will be asked to give a 10-minute individual presentation about the group project and their involvement. The meeting will be used as an opportunity to test students’ knowledge and involvement and to give feedback to help in the writing of the final report.
