Assessment will be based on a written examination of 2-hour (for a semester module) or 3-hour (for

Some modules in the structure are run over 15 weeks and carry 3 credits. The assessment of such
modules will consist of continuous assessment and an examination of a duration of 2 hrs at the end
of the semester in which the module is run.
