There will be two course-work exercises to hand in for assessment and these will count, jointly, towards 50% of the total course mark. The remaining 50% will come from an unseen examination taken in the summer term of the first year. The first exercise will be set in week 5 with a deadline on Thursday at the end of week 7. The second exercise will be handed out in week 7, with a deadline on Thursday at the end of week 9.
