Independent Study Modules (Language/Linguistics/English Language)

ISMs are available to Finalists in Semester 1 or Semester 2. It is your responsibility to talk to a potential supervisor about your proposal and to ensure that they are willing to supervise the project before you register for an ISM. For all ISMs, you must complete a proposal (using one of the proposal forms, below) that has been discussed with and approved by your proposed supervisor. You must ensure that your proposal demonstrates adequate evidence that the proposed work is realistic and feasible.

The proposal must be approved by a sub-committee of the Board of Studies. If a proposal is inadequate, the Board of Studies may reject it outright, or require corrections before your module is approved. 

Sickness self certification

Please note that you are only allowed to use this form to cover 10 days of sickness in any one academic year. Please remember that in completing this form you also need to email affected teaching staff, your supervisor and the Departmental Office with details of each teaching session missed, eg "L12C seminar, Monday 6 November".
