Integrated Assessment:
Whilst the number and types of assessments will differ between the different modules, they will range from tests through to assignments and projects to writing of research proposals and examinations.

Formative Assessment:
Minimum two (2) tests or per module.
Minimum one (1) scientific assignment per module.

Summative Assessment:
A 3-hour written examination per module except for Land Use Planning IV and Research Methodology IV which are continuous assessment subjects.
