YEAR ABROAD ASSESSMENT

Modes of assessment for the year abroad are detailed in the School of Languages, Linguistics and Film Year Abroad Handbook, which is distributed to all second year students at the beginning of the second semester.  The Year Abroad Assessment is an integral and compulsory part of the year abroad.  Progression into the final year of your degree is dependent upon successful completion of the Year Abroad Assessment, which is worth 120 credits.

There are two modes through which the year abroad is assessed by the School (ERASMUS/other university examinations or completion of a Year Abroad Assessment).  In order to find out which modes of assessment are available to you, you must consult the section of the Year Abroad Handbook devoted to your home department.  Please remember that your mode of assessment of the year abroad depends on the regulations of your individual department(s).

If you are a joint language student and are splitting the year abroad between two countries, you must complete a Semester Abroad Assessment in each country. You must consult both Year Abroad Co-ordinators in order to formally agree your assessment.
