This section should be approximately 500 words in length and should provide a
description of the main references that you have identified as being relevant to the
subject matter of your project and/or the main material that you are going to use in
carrying out your investigation.
 
You would typically be expected to identify 4 or 5 particularly relevant references and
to EXPLAIN why these references are particularly relevant to your project (using
approximately 50 words in each case).
 
In addition to references, this section may also include descriptions of other
information or material that you have collected that may be relevant to your project.
For example, if you are carrying out a case study it would be relevant to explain what
data you have obtained and how you have obtained this. If you are carrying out
laboratory tests on a new type of material it would be relevant to describe what this
material is and where you have obtained your samples.
 
 
c)  A Project Programme  [5% of Module Mark]
 
The project programme is to be produced by assessing the tasks required to
complete the project and then breaking these down into an appropriate number of
individual activities.
 
As a guideline, it is expected that the total number of activities will be in the order of
10 to 15.
 
The activities identified should cover all necessary aspects of the project including;
planning, design of any equipment or research materials; carrying out a literature
review; data collection; data analysis and writing a final research report.
 
It is suggested that the final project programme be presented as a bar chart showing
all activities and proposed durations.
 
The suggested maximum word count for this section is again approximately 500
