Subject matter
The Semester 2 Dissertation Report II (10 ECTS) is an extended scholarly essay of approximately 10,000 words, reviewing the critical material available and outlining an approach to the research topic to be addressed in the Masters Dissertation. It will be submitted by 20th June, and will be supervised by a member of academic staff and assessed by both the supervisor and another member of the academic staff (not necessarily from the same institution).
The Dissertation Report II differs from the 5ECTS Dissertation Report I in that a greater body of work is demanded of the student (10,000 words, as opposed to 6,000).
The Dissertation Report II concerns the students who chose not to take an internship.
