The Edexcel Extended Project Qualification (EPQ) allows learners to select one of the four units, which will be completed over one year. They should select a project topic which expands their learning in their field of study, in a related area, or that is relevant to their own personal interests. Each of the four units offers a different type of project: a dissertation, an investigation/field study, a performance or an artefact. The vast majority of students complete 6,000-word dissertations. Learners will be assessed on their ability to plan, manage, complete and review their project.
