Methods of Assessment
PROGRESS
TEST, EXAMINATIONS AND OVERALL REQUIREMENT
There
is a 2 hour progress test in July 2007.
Three 4-hour honours examination papers will be written during the
honours course, at the end of each module.
The first in October 2007, the second in
January 2008 and the third in
April 2008.
The results of these three papers plus the mark allocated to the
technical report (or refereed articles as the case may be) will be used to
determine the overall grade of the candidate in the honours programme.
Candidates' performance will be reviewed at each stage, i.e. after
a progress test which will be written after about two months on the course
proper, and after each of the three examinations. Anyone whose performance
is not satisfactory at any of these stages will not be permitted to
continue.

Certificates

Masters
Candidates
whose performance is exceptional will be invited to convert to a Master of
Commerce (Taxation) should they so choose.
They will then be required to submit a masters thesis instead of
the honours technical report. The
thesis will comprise 50% of the total marks for the course.
This thesis must be completed within a prescribed period.
Graduation
Successful
candidates will graduate in December 2008.
