GEOL3011 Geosciences Report
AIMS
To complete, with initial guidance and reasonable supervision, a critical literature review. This will be presented in the form of a short dissertation, of about 5000 words length, in the style of a scientific paper.
OUTCOMES
- To complete, with initial guidance and reasonable supervision, a critical literature review.
- To present a short dissertation, of about 5000 words length, in the style of a scientific paper.
CONTENT
The subject area of the Geoscience Report should be relevant to the individual student's degree programme. Students should discuss potential topics with an appropriate member of staff willing to oversee your progress, i.e help you start off and read a draft towards the end.
Guidance will be given by the Module Organiser.
