COURSE CODE

A Master Project is divided into two parts using two different course codes carried out within the timescale of at least two consecutive semesters. The Master Project codes for Part I and Part II are MEMx 1914 and MEMx 2926 respectively.

The first part of the Master Project (1914), carried out during the first semester, is a 4-credit course, and the second part (2926), carried out during the second semester, is a 6-credit course. Both parts are evaluated separately.

CONDITIONS AND REQUIREMENTS FOR THE MASTER PROJECT STUDENT

• A pre-requisite to register Master Project code 1914 is Research Methodology MEMx 1903.
• A Master student is required to register the course code 1914 for the first semester and course code 2926 for the second semester subsequent to passing 1914.
• Master Project I (code 1914) is a pre-requisite of Master Project II (code 2926). A Student is required to pass with at least grade B− (65%) for Master Project I before progressing to Master Project II.
• If a student fails to get at least B− for the Master Project I (code 1914), he/she is required to repeat the course. This can be done under the same project or he/she can choose to change to a new project. The student is also required to undergo registration for the course again.
• A student who fails Master Project II (code 2926) is required to repeat the course and this can only be done under the same project. The student is also required to register again for the course using Repeat Code (UM).
