Middle Eastern Studies
The Faculty Board of Asian and Middle Eastern Studies give notice of a change in date for the oral examinations to be held as part of the examination in 2011 for Part II of the Oriental Studies Tripos, (and in 2012 for Part II of the Asian and Middle Eastern Studies Tripos) as follows:
Oral examinations in Arabic, Hebrew, and Persian have been brought forward from the week after the Division of Easter Term so as to be held with effect from the Thursday before the beginning of the Michaelmas Term of the year in which the examination is to be held.
The Faculty Board are satisfied that no candidate’s preparation for the examination in 2011 will be affected by this change.
The Degree Committee for the Department of Land Economy give notice, with the approval of the Board of Graduate Studies and the General Board, that in the academical year 2010–11 the modules for: Environmental Policy; Land Economy Research; Planning, Growth and Regeneration; and Real Estate Finance, in the examination for the M.Phil. Degree (one-year course), in addition to the compulsory dissertation, will be as follows. Each candidate’s course of study will be subject to the approval of the Degree Committee. Modules may be withdrawn if there is not sufficient demand or in the event of exceptional circumstances. Availability of modules will be subject to satisfactory completion of prerequisite modules specified by the Department of Land Economy in the M.Phil. Handbook, and to timetabling constraints.
