New Term Jan 2022

 

 A few notes for clarity of this between-term period:

 

All work submitted in December is currently in the process of being marked, moderated and viewed by our External Examiners throughout this month. Please note that supervisors may not respond to emails as quickly during this time.


Finalists -  You will receive your grade for Module 3 at the end of February and your overall finalist degree classification (distinction, merit, pass) the following week. You should contact the graduation office at Mdx for details, dates and format of graduation, not your supervisor.


Returning students you will receive feedback on your work from your supervisor via email on Jan 31. Your grades will be published on UniHub by the end of February.

Our new term begins on Jan 31st and runs for 12 weeks - submission of work for this term for all modules is May 6th 2022.

Your schedule of sessions, dates for drafts, final submission dates etc are all available on UniHub for you now - Please do diarise for yourselves and make every effort to attend sessions throughout the term. 

Your updated Module Handbooks will be available on Unihub from Monday Jan 24 - please use this week to familiarise yourself with the module you will be undertaking this term.

Your supervisor will remain the same as last term unless you have had conversations with me that confirm otherwise.

 

We look forward to working with you again this year!!
