This module sees students complete their dissertation/research project, which commenced in Research Studies 1. Students are required to choose a topic related to their instrument/voice. The project may consist of a written dissertation or a performance-related project integrating performance and other research outputs, such as a written commentary, scholarly editions, catalogues, artistic compositions, audio-visual and multimedia materials etc., depending on the nature of the project.
Students will continue to receive supervision (as in Research Studies 1) in preparation for submitting their project during the examination period in January. The number of self-directed learning hours is indicative of the students’ ownership of the project and that substantial research and writing will be undertaken during the summer recess.
Students must submit a complete draft project in advance of the final submission date. Students who fail to meet these deadlines may not have their work marked and ratified in time for the next Exam Board.
Supervision arrangements for Advanced Entry Pathway (full-time programme): Supervision will be available until 20 June. A draft submission is to be sent to the supervisor by 1 September. Final submission will be by the third Thursday in September.
