We have eschewed exams in this programme in favour of more applied assessment. There are essays due in each of the six modules in the first year, in addition to shorter assignments, one being a statistical analysis of epidemiological data. The third semester is a 10 month research project where each student has the opportunity to undergo a significant piece of research on an area of their choosing, culminating in the submission of a 4,000 word journal article and delivery of a presentation to the programme directors.
