Elective Programme - Assessment and Marking

  • Report from the external supervisor certifying attendance and including a structured assessment of performance (punctuality, enthusiasm, commitment to the programme, teamwork if appropriate and whether the objectives of the programme were achieved) during the elective programme.
  • Structured assessment of a reflective report (500 - 600 words), which must be submitted by each student, (for individual activities as well as group activities) to the internal supervisor, within one month of completion of the elective programme. The reflective report should include the following: title of the programme, aims, whether the aims were achieved, highlights and good outcomes, difficulties encountered, how the programme would be of benefit to the student in the future, any other comments.
  • An oral examination and appropriate remedial measures would be implemented if either the supervisor’s report or the reflective reports is unsatisfactory.
  • No marks will be awarded for the elective programme. However, satisfactory completion of the elective programme is mandatory for a student to commence the professorial appointments.
  • Using a structured assessment, certificates of merit will be awarded to the three leading students.
