Overview
The MSc in Integrated Resource Management involves two semesters of lectures followed by an individual research project.
The programme starts in September each year and lasts nine months (for the Diploma) or twelve months (for the MSc). Part-time students will discuss their individual programme of study with the Programme Director.
The curriculum consists of six taught courses, totalling 120 credits, (September to April) followed by a period of individual dissertation project work, worth 60 credits (May to August).
Assessment is by a combination of:
- continuous assessment
- written examination
- dissertation
Examinations are held at the end of the semester in which the course finishes. For some of the more applied courses, however, the assessment is entirely practical (e.g. a project, a plan, a report).
