5 The MSc Research project The Department has a focus of systems research that underpins all the research groups, which includes Human Computer Interaction, Mathematical Logic and Symbolic Computation and Media Technology. There is also a growing activity in Agents and Artificial Intelligence. The interdisciplinary nature of its research is reflected in the vibrant academic and research staff community. Staff have backgrounds which include Computing, Engineering, Mathematics and Psychology and many are active in a number of collaborative research centres such as the Media Technology Research Centre and the EPSRC-funded Systems Engineering Doctorate Centre. Involvement with industry at both regional and international levels is high. Regionally, we have close links with HP Laboratories, BAE Systems, Airbus and Vodafone. These collaborations benefit both our research and teaching activities, providing opportunities for research, seminars, student projects and placements, graduate and postgraduate employment. Each student on the MSc will undertake a project and dissertation during the summer. The second semester unit CM50175 Research Project Preparation provides the grounding for the research project, and allow students to choose and research their chosen project area. The research period starts after the Semester 2 examinations, and students are expect to meet regularly with their project supervisor throughout the summer. Students also have the option of an extended period in industry during which they can undertake their research project and write their dissertation. The research project will be related to the theme that the student is studying. In most cases the project will be a synthesis of both an analytical and a computational approach to solving or investigating a substantial computer science problem. However, projects will vary in style, and some may be more experimentally-based, and some may be purely theoretical. It is expected that several projects will involve external collaboration, as has been the case in previous years on related Masters programmes. Details of work placements / work-based learning / industrial training / study abroad requirements N/A Details of support available to students (e.g. induction programmes, programme information, resources) The Department has been running Masters programmes for over 13 years and has considerable experience in the support required by graduate students, and with the specific needs of overseas and mature students. The Department of Computer Science integrates with the University support services through its framework of academic and pastoral support. Student support starts with the student handbooks provided for each accepted student prior to joining, that introduces the prospective student to the Department. On joining the Department, our Masters induction introduces students to the campus, the Department, and the Programme. Each student will receive an Postgraduate Programmes Handbook which includes a unit catalogue describing the programme and relevant academic regulations. Each student will be assigned a personal tutor who will be the focus for academic advice and guidance throughout their time on the Programme. Personal tutors also act as an interface to the central support services should financial or other personal problems arise. The Director of Teaching oversees the operation of the Programme and is also available for consultation by the students and, of course, staff. There is additionally a Year Tutor specific to the masters year. The Department already has a well-equipped Masters computing laboratory, which is for the exclusive use of our Masters students. The MSc will have representatives on the Departmental Staff Student Liaison Committee. The Programme Handbook provides details of support services available in the University, and explains how to access all aspects of student welfare within the University. Students also have access to the University Careers Service, and to skill development opportunities both through the University and the Students' Union. These services can provide information, advice and support in relation to accommodation, emotional difficulties, assessment of needs and provision of support relating to disability, student
6 funding, general welfare, academic problems, student discipline and complaints, careers, international students, spiritual matters, part time work, security and personal safety. The Students Union can also provide advocacy for students. More information about these services can be accessed via: Student Support and Resources web pages 1. There are also Medical and Dental Centres, and a Chaplaincy on campus that are very experienced in meeting the needs of a student population, as well as a University nursery and vacation play scheme to provide childcare for older children during the school holidays. Admissions criteria (including arrangements for APL/APEL) Candidates must be able to satisfy the general admissions requirements of the University of Bath. All candidates are considered individually on merit, and the normal requirement is a good honours (2.1 or higher) degree from a UK university, in an appropriate subject for the degree the applicant wishes to study, or other equivalents. Post-degree computing experience of a candidate will be taken into account. Honours degrees should be in he computer sciences, mathematical sciences, physical sciences or engineering. Students from other disciplines who can offer relevant experience in computing will also be considered. Proficiency in the English language is required for entry to the MSc since it is a highly intensive course. We expect candidates to achieve at least 6.5 in IELTS or 237 in TOEFL (computer-based test), or equivalent, before being admitted to the course. We accept GCSE English, in line with University practice. Summary of assessment and progression regulations The total taught requirement is 60 credits total over 2 semesters. The research project attracts a further 30 credits, in order to complete the 90 credit Masters programme. The PG Diploma requires the successful completion of the taught units over two semesters. These units are Required units: CM50123 Networking 6 Credits CM50109 Formal methods & programming 12 Credits CM50199 Systems programming 6 Credits CM50210 CM50121 Cryptography Security and integrity 6 Credits 6 credits CM50175 Research project preparation 12 Credits In each semester the credits taken must total 30, by choice of one of the Options. The chosen Option is followed for the entire degree. Students may not mix pathways in different semesters. Some of the taught units are examined solely by coursework, others by a mixture of examination and coursework, and others solely by examination. The written examinations for the taught units that have them take place at the end of the semesters in which the units are taught. The progression and assessment requirements of the PG Diploma/MSc are fully compliant with the New Framework for Assessment: Assessment Regulations Phases 2 and 3 for postgraduate taught programmes (NFAAR:PGT) Progression to the Dissertation (Research Project) Stage Progression to the Dissertation Stage normally requires that a student achieves a mark of 50% or above as an overall stage average. If a student achieves a mark of at least 40%, but below 50% in the overall stage average, progression to the dissertation stage will not normally be permitted, and the Postgraduate Diploma may be awarded, provided that the student has met the criteria for this award under NFAAR:PGT rules. 1
7 Dissertation (Research Project) Referral A student will only be permitted to retrieve a failed dissertation at the discretion of the Board of Examiners and, normally, where the dissertation has obtained a mark of at least 35%. Resubmission of the dissertation should normally be within 12 months of the first submission. A student is allowed only one attempt at retrieval of the dissertation. A student who fails to submit a dissertation will not normally be allowed a retrieval, and will only be considered for the award of the Postgraduate Diploma, as above. Awards MSc: An average mark of 50% or higher across all the taught units, and a dissertation mark of 40% or higher is required for the award of an MSc,provided the student has met the overall credit requirements under NFAAR: PGT rules. Postgraduate Diploma: An overall stage average of 40% or above in the in the Semester 1 and Semester 2 stages and an overall credit requirement of 60 credits may qualify a student for the Postgraduate Diploma. The Postgraduate Diploma is only awarded as a terminating qualification. Students cannot be awarded the Diploma and continue onto the MSc. Awards with Distinction or with Merit Students will normally be eligible for the award of a Masters degree with Distinction if they achieve a mark of at least 70% in the dissertation/project and an average mark across the taught units of at least 70%. Students will normally be eligible for the award of a Masters degree with Merit if they achieve a mark of at least 60% in the dissertation/project and an average mark across the taught units of at least 60%. Students will normally be eligible for the award of a Postgraduate Diploma or a Postgraduate Certificate (as appropriate) with Distinction if they achieve an average mark across the taught units of at least 70%. Students will normally be eligible for the award of a Postgraduate Diploma or a Postgraduate Certificate (as appropriate) with Merit if they achieve an average mark across the taught units of at least 60%. Indicators of quality and standards (e.g. professional accreditation) The University regulations and practice in regard to Quality Assurance are defined within the Quality Assurance Code of Practice, which is available to all staff and students from the University intranet web-site at All units on the programme and the programme specification are validated through the University QA procedures. The quality of unit assessments will be externally assessed on an annual basis by an external examiner, appointed to oversee the degree. At the end of each Semester students are asked to complete a questionnaire for each of the taught units, with the results being collated by the Department. At the end of each academic year each Unit Lecturer is provided with the processed results of the Unit Questionnaires, the assessment marks within the unit and a comparative statistical analysis of student performance in the unit against their performance in other units. Using this information, and any comments from examination boards or the External Examiner, the Unit Lecturer will produce a brief report on the operation of the Unit, will reflect on the changes made in the unit when compared with previous years, and will identify plans to address any difficulties for the incoming year. These reports are considered by the Director of Teaching as a part of the Annual Programme evaluation, and are brought to the Department's Staff Student Liaison Committee and Learning Teaching and Quality Committee for discussion. This allows persistent problems to be identified, action to be taken and good practice to be identified for dissemination. The Dissertation will be marked by at least two members of staff, one normally being the student's supervisor. Markers will be provided with generic marking descriptors to assist the marking process,
8 and initial marking will be done independently, with the initial marks and marks sheets being submitted independently to the Director of Studies. After the initial marks have been collected the two markers will meet to compare assessments and decide upon an agreed mark for the dissertation. The two markers will provide a written record of how the final mark was agreed. A moderation process will be used if the two markers cannot agree a mark, or if there is a discrepancy between initial marks and final mark. All dissertations are available for the external examiners to see, and externals are particularly asked to consider borderline pass/fail or pass/distinction dissertations, and those dissertations which have required moderation. The Director of Teaching will undertake an annual programme review (feedback results, external examiners' reports etc) for the Faculty Learning Teaching & Quality Committee, which provides information for programme development. There is also a five year degree scheme review for all degree programmes within the University. The Director of Teaching will hold regular, informal meetings with the student cohort to discuss academic issues. Each student will be assigned a personal tutor who will be able to discuss academic issues and offer advice on personal circumstances affecting the student's study, and more generic training opportunities. To assure continuing excellence in its quality and standards, the University of Bath has a quality management framework 2 including: 1. A Quality Assurance Code of Practice 3, and associated regulations and policies. 2. A learning, teaching and quality committee structure 4 which monitors quality and standards 5 and instigates action for enhancement. 3. Staff development arrangements 6 that assist staff in enhancing their own performance as educators, as researchers or as professional support services staff. Students are involved in many of these processes 7. The emphasis here is upon the informed student voice - engaging with students as academic citizens to ensure they have opportunities to take an active part in shaping their own learning. A more detailed overview of the University s Quality Management framework is set out in it Approach to Quality Management 8. The Quality Assurance Agency (QAA) periodically reviews the quality of the University of Bath s Learning and Teaching performance. At the last review by the QAA in November , the University was given the highest grading available, that of Confidence, in the soundness of the University s current and likely future management of both the academic standards of its awards and the quality of learning opportunities available to students.
