The School of History uses a combination of different assessment methods to capture the range of ways that students learn on the programme. At Level 3 assessment types across our compulsory and optional modules typically include: a final year project (long essay, dissertation, or public history output), primary source analyses (‘gobbets’), literature reviews; presentations; essays; and online exams.
