• The total word count EXCLUDES the bibliography.

• Please provide a word count for the essay (minus the bibliography).

• You are allowed to go approximately 10% either side of the recommended word count, but no more.

• The essay should primarily draw on academic literature (e.g. books, book chapters, journal articles,). You can also use relevant publicly available reports and websites (e.g. from local government, central government, etc.).

• Where appropriate, your discussion should be supported by maps, tables and charts that contain relevant evidence that relates to your chosen topic. These maps, etc. should be labelled and numbered, and their source should also be included.

• The literature that you use and the sources of any evidence which you present must be clearly acknowledged within the text and listed in a bibliography at the end of the essay.

• Use the Harvard system of referencing for the bibliography and references.

• The essay must be typed and should be clearly presented.

• Use a clear font such as Times New Roman, Calibri or Verdana and normally 11-12pt font. You should leave standard margins on each page and include page numbers.

• You may use the first person (‘I’ or ‘we’) in your writing, but do so sparingly.

• You do not need to include sub-headings.

• Please note only PDF and Word documents are accepted formats for submission in Moodle. If you work with word processing software, please make sure your file is converted to one of those two formats before submitting. The Turnitin submission procedure in Moodle allows either Word or PDF file formats to be uploaded.

• If a document contains figures or charts, it may be best to save the final file for submission in PDF format.

Please submit essay in TWO formats:

1. Electronically via Turnitin/Moodle.

2. Paper copy.

i) No individual academic member of staff can allow extensions.

ii) Coursework submitted late is given two marks: a penalty mark of the Pass mark, assuming it is of a pass standard, and the ‘real’ mark that would have been awarded if the work had not been late. Both marks are given to the student on a cover sheet. If the coursework is not of a pass standard a single mark is given.

iii) Students submitting coursework late have the opportunity to provide written evidence, medical or otherwise, as to why their work was submitted late. This should be submitted to the Course Administrator WITHIN TWO WEEKS OF THE DEADLINE. The Course Administrator will forward it to the Mitigation Sub-Committee (see point v. below). If no such documentation is received prior to the meeting of the Mitigation Sub-Committee the ‘real’ mark will not be considered and the penalty mark will stand.

iv) An absolute cut off deadline for late submission and accompanying documentation shall be specified.

v) All requests are held over and considered by a sub-group of the relevant Exam Board prior to a meeting of the full Exam Board. This sub-group should be called the Mitigation Sub-Committee and should meet termly and/or prior to the full Exam Board, as appropriate. All cases on file should be dealt with at that meeting/those meetings, and the results presented to the full Exam Board.

vi) Appropriate procedures should be put in place for students on interdisciplinary programmes. This should normally involve submission of evidence to the relevant module tutor, who should pass it on to the Mitigation Sub-Committee of the School in which the programme is based.
