What is the EPQ?
The Extended Project Qualification is a freestanding Level 3 qualification introduced in September 2008. The Extended Project Qualification is driven by the need of higher education institutes to have undergraduate students with more of the skills needed to be successful at degree level. The EPQ can really boost your UCAS application and is a prestigious qualification that universities rate very highly.
The EPQ is equivalent to your other AS courses and is recognised by UCAS in terms of the university tariff system. In other words, if you gain an A in your EPQ, you will also get 60 UCAS points! Students have the opportunity to take the EPQ as an extension to their other Level 3 studies (A Level, BTEC etc), for instance students can choose to study a topic that is closely aligned to one of their existing Level 3 subjects.
Alternatively, students may choose to use the EPQ as an opportunity to explore an area of personal interest outside their main program of study.
The EPQ can take the format of a written report (5000 words) or an artefact which is accompanied by a written report (1000) words. The EPQ is so flexible – the possibilities are endless!
How will I study for the EPQ
The EPQ is largely conducted through independent research and study, and it is expected that students complete in total up to 120 hours of study. Remember, this is equivalent to an AS level. The EPQ will also involve some teaching of the relevant skills needed to help you complete your project and, in addition, you will be given plenty of opportunity to meet with your project supervisor to discuss your progress and gain advice and feedback.
What do I have to produce for my EPQ?
You must submit a written report of either 1000 or 5000 words. The length of your written report will depend on the nature of the project, the subject area or topic chosen, and also what other evidence you have provided in your Production Log.
A project which consists only of written work should be approximately 5000 words. Examples of this type of project could include an investigation, exploration of a hypothesis or an extended essay or an academic report. Projects where the majority of the evidence is provided in other formats should include a report which is at least 1000 words.
You must also produce a presentation for a nonspecialist audience and use media appropriate to the type of project. It can take the form of a verbal or written presentation and may involve the use of flipcharts, posters, OHP, PowerPoint show, or short extracts of video material. The presentation should be supported by a question and answer session.
