DSM — MSc Programme Validation
Fifteen validation activities for a new taught master's degree taken in the order the approval form's sections ask for them, computing that 16 of the 35 dependency marks run backwards there against 3 in the partitioned sequence, and resolving the work into three negotiation pairs: modules with credits, assessment with the external examiner, and staffing with the timetable.
