    project that demonstrates their fulfilment of the programme learning
    outcomes. It also includes a student’s reflection in writing on his or
    her experience in relation to the material. It integrates academic
    knowledge with experiences beyond the classroom and combines
    developing knowledge, skills, and personal interests. The project is
    conceived, designed, and carried out independently, with support
    and supervision.

    presentation of a body of visual / literary work, written project,
    dissertation or combination thereof.
