Coursework
- MATH39542: The coursework will consist of three pieces of homework to be handed in. At the moment, the three deadlines are scheduled as follows: 27 February noon, 13 March noon and 1 May noon. The exercises that correspond to each piece of homework will be provided at least a week in advance of the corresponding deadline. Each part counts as 1/3 for the total coursework mark and the total coursework mark counts for 10% of the final mark.
- MATH69542: The coursework will consist of the same three pieces of homework as for MATH39542 (with the same deadlines), each of them counting for 20% of the total coursework mark. In addition, there will be two extra pieces of coursework, each counting for 20% of the total coursework mark. The deadlines for these two additional pieces of coursework will be determined later. The total coursework mark counts for 10% of the final mark.
