Deadlines
All deadlines for History Postgraduate modules will be on a Wednesday at 12noon.
Penalties for late submission and over-length work
Students who fail to meet deadlines will incur penalties as set out in the PGT Handbook.
Please note that the word limit does not include essay title, footnotes, essay bibliography, graphs, tables and appendices. Marks will be deducted for overlength work, but you will not be penalised for producing under length work, provided quality is not sacrificed to brevity. Learning to write to a word limit is one of the skills the degree is designed to encourage you to cultivate.
