What the college says
You'll learn about the skills that you'll need to undertake the EPQ such as project management, research and reflection. You'll develop an idea for a project, set out your aims and objectives and produce a proposal which you'll agree with your supervisor. You'll execute your project independently, during which time you'll get regular supervision to make sure that you're on track. You'll then produce a 5000-word report and deliver a presentation to demonstrate your findings as well as showing the ways you went about planning and managing your research.
