The modules Qualitative Social Research and Quantitative Social Research are assessed by a combination of exam and coursework. The module Theorising Social Research is assessed through two pieces of coursework. The ‘Masterclass’ module is assessed through a written project, a research proposal and an oral presentation. The dissertation module is assessed through a 15,000-word dissertation.
