The assessment for this module is based on one coursework, 100% weighted, which is an individual research project report. This research project is built on the research project proposal which you passed as assessment for the 7HURM017W Research Methods module.
The pass mark for the 7HURM016W HRM Project module is 50%. If your mark is below 50%, you will be eligible to resubmit or retake; your mark for this will be capped at 50%.
Please note that the Project module has different referral / retake regulations than taught modules: only one re-assessment of the Project module is allowed: retake or referral (not both). A referral in the Project module normally means you will be asked to submit your referred project at the next submission deadline. A retake in the Project module normally means you are asked to resubmit a Project a year later.
The University has arrangements for marking, internal moderation and external scrutiny. Further information can be found in Section 12 of the Handbook of Academic Regulations, westminster.ac.uk/study/current-students/resources/academic-regulations
Unless explicitly indicated otherwise all coursework must be submitted electronically via Blackboard. In addition to the detail given below, further information may be posted onto the Blackboard site for the module.Bear in mind that your Project is worth 30 credits which is 50% more than the credit value of most other modules. Equally, it is not a taught programme, but solely based on your independent research. This means, among other things, that the module will be challenging, that you cannot expect to conduct a small survey and simply write up the results market-research style – you will need to read extensively and to think critically, so as to understand and apply the relevant knowledge in the field rather than simply reproduce it with minor variations.
Projects are hard work and will require your commitment throughout the year.
