The University of Salford is currently looking at postgraduate (taught) credit and awards. One of the points of discussion is the use of differential pass marks for PgCerts/PgDips and Masters awards and I have been asked to establish some idea of practice at other institutions. To this end could people let me know if their institution operates a differential pass mark or not and if yes what is it (e.g. 40% pass mark for a PgDip, but 50% for a Masters) Many thanks Richard Richard Clemens Academic & Student Administration -Evaluation & Enhancement Academic Division University of Salford, Salford M5 4WT http://www.academic.salford.ac.uk/ Tel: 0161 295 2255 Fax: 0161 295 2257 [log in to unmask]
