Diploma for Graduates in Politics

Assessment

Each unit is assessed by one three-hour unseen written examination, and each half unit by one two-hour unseen written examination. For the following three units coursework/a project also counts towards the assessment:

  • 60 Introduction to information systems
  • 61 Software engineering
  • 63 Information systems project

You do not have to come to London to take your examinations. Examinations are held once a year in local overseas centres around the world as well as in London. Examinations overseas are arranged mainly through Ministries of Education or the British Council. You will be charged a fee by your local examination centre (this fee will vary). Examinations are held once a year, usually in May.

Classification: Undergraduate degrees are awarded with First Class Honours, Upper Second Class Honours, Lower Second Class Honours or Third Class Honours. If you do not qualify for Honours, you may be awarded a Pass classification.

The standard of the examination for degrees is the same as that for students studying at a College of the University.
