LAW2105 Assessment Coursework

Assignment Structure, Format and Details

The coursework should be typed on white, A4 paper, in 12 point font. A bibliography should be included at the end of the coursework. Cases must be cited correctly, but the full citation may be contained in footnotes. Please note that work which is not properly referenced will not achieve a good grade.

Word count must be recorded and failure to do so, or incorrectly stating the word count, will result in 2% being deducted from your final mark for the coursework. Your bibliography and footnotes do not count towards the word count, PROVIDED they are used for referencing/citation purposes only. Any explanatory text in footnotes will not be read or assessed.

You must fully attribute any judicial quotations or passages taken from articles or textbooks. Failure to do so may result in your work being referred to Academic Registry for Plagiarism. Please note: If you do not reference your coursework properly, you cannot gain a grade 1 or 2.1. If in doubt, consult your tutor.
