Trefnydd: Dr Craig Prescott

Amcanion cyffredinol

This module offers postgraduate students the opportunity to engage in an extended piece of legal research. By defining an area of study, pursuing their research and presenting their work at an appropriate level, students will develop their study and research skills.

In particular, the dissertation enables the development of new skills in analysing and synthesizing complex material, which, when combined with the student's new and existing understanding and knowledge of the area of study, is structured into a sustained argument that addresses a specific legal question of the student's own choosing.

Cynnwys cwrs

This module consists of researching and writing a dissertation project in the field of Law. The Dissertation will be 15,000 to 20,000 words in length. The dissertation topic will be confirmed in consultation with the supervising tutor and the Director of Postgraduate Studies.

The student will be expected to clearly understand the literature in their chosen field of study (primary and secondary sources). Should the project involve empirical research, then familiarity with techniques of data collection and analysis will be expected.
