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. There will be some classroom-based teaching and one-to-one support but the remainder of the time you will work independently. You'll develop useful project management skills, research and critical analysis that are useful in higher education and the world of work. A good grade EPQ is worth 70 UCAS points so very useful for university applications, particularly so if you are applying for competitive courses such as medicine, business or law.
You'll submit a production log and assessment record detailing your project planning and move on to and your reflections on the process along with a 5000-word report and evidence of your presentation.
