Attention all FULL-TIME Students

Hi everyone,

This message is only intended for FULL-TIME students.

There will be compulsory one-to-one progress tutorials held for all students:

EMSD on Wednesday 4th February (between 9am and 11am)
SA/EMB/GIS on Wednesday 11th February (between 9am and 11am)

A list has been posted on the Research Design and Methods unit Moodle page (near the top of the page) telling you which slot you have been allocated. The tutorial slot only lasts for 15 minutes but is very important as you will be asked about:

What MSc dissertation topic do you want to do (I need this information to match you to a supervisor)
Do you wish to go on a placement during your dissertation?
Will you be attending the MSc Field Trip in March?
Yours marks and attendance (engagement)
Employability and careers

Please arrive slightly before your allocated slot to allow a smooth handover from one person to the next.

Thanks
Mark

Students leaving us .....

A fond farewell to those of you about to hand in your lovely new MSc dissertation this week.

Please remember that the copies you submit should be hard-bound (like the ones on the shelf in E402) and not soft bound.

Soft bound copies may bar the work from being presented to the Board.


Cheers
Mark
