SUMMARY / ABSTRACT (DELETE AS PREFERRED)
The summary must be written in English and should consist of a piece of connected
prose forming an abstract of the dissertation and be about 300 words in length. If at all
possible, it should be accommodated on one side of A4 sized paper. It should bear the
candidate’s name and the exact title of the dissertation at the head of the page.
If candidates submit a soft-bound dissertation in the first instance, they will need when
submitting the final hard-bound copy of the dissertation, to provide a further, loose-leaf,
copy of this summary, identical to that bound into the final version, for the University
Library file.
The summary will be considered by the examiners and, if the dissertation is approved,
be deposited in the University Library for consultation and inter-library loan.
