Most modules are assessed with examinations and coursework. Details can be found in the individual module specifications. Typically, modules are mainly assessed through written examination, and coursework also contributes to module assessment.
The written examinations will contain theoretical questions, including mathematical aspects, as well as writing and analysing small amounts of code and small essays on the applications of computational techniques.
As you move over to the more specialised modules as part of your Programme Stage 3 and Programme Stage 4, you will be expected to demonstrate how well you can synthesise various pieces of knowledge and be also assessed on how well you can critically reflect on the solutions you are suggesting.
The balance of assessment by coursework (assessed essays and assignments) unseen examinations and a final year project will to some extent depend on the optional modules you choose.
Year 1 Written examination: 41% Coursework: 59%
Year 2 Written examination: 35% Coursework: 65%
Year 3 Written examination: 24% Coursework: 76%
