MILAN — Prada chief Patrizio Bertelli lashed out at the Italian fashion industry Tuesday, accusing it of being out of date with a fast-paced and increasingly competitive world dominated by Asian manufacturing prowess and chains such as Zara and Hennes & Mauritz. The executive also called for a massive shift in the fashion show calendar, moving the spring ready-to- wear shows to July.
During a 24-minute speech at a luxury goods conference organized by the Pambianco consultancy, Bertelli touched on a variety of subjects, criticizing Italians for working fewer hours than their foreign counterparts and rallying for government aid to small businesses. He also acknowledged fast-fashion chains' competitive muscle, consumers' declining sense of brand loyalty and banks' failure to weather companies' difficult times.
"The Italian system's answers to these problems are always the same. There's been no change. [Instead] there are these peripheral discussions about how many days of fashion shows there should be and whether Prada will show first or Prada will show first," Bertelli said.
Despite those powerful words, the executive's tone softened considerably when pushed to discuss the future of his own 1.33 billion euro, or $1.69 billion at current exchange, company. Cornered by journalists asking if he'll finally come through on a thrice-postponed public offering next year, Bertelli muttered cryptically: "We'll see when the best moment arrives."
Meanwhile, there are other corporate developments afoot at Prada. Bertelli said he will finalize a fresh financing deal with Banca Intesa by the end of the month. As reported, Banca Intesa plans to buy 5 percent of Prada as part of a 300 million euro, or $375 million, package.
Elsewhere, Prada is gearing up to buy the remainder of shoemaker Church's by the end of the year, according to a source close to the company. Private fund Equinox, which bought 55 percent of Church's from Prada in 2003, has an option to sell control of the company back to Prada. Church's just tapped former LVMH Moët Hennessy Louis Vuitton Italia executive Agostino Ropolo to head up retail development for the footwear brand.
At the conference, Bertelli said Italians have failed to unite and confront a rapidly changing global market. He was particularly critical of the fashion show calendar and proposed moving up the spring women's rtw shows to July, ahead of Italy's famed monthlong vacation break in August.
This story first appeared in the November 8, 2006 issue of WWD. Subscribe Today.
"I don't understand why we have to wait until the last week of September," he said. Bertelli noted there is a four-week gap between the men's and women's fall shows in January and February, so he doesn't understand why the women's spring shows can't be closer to the men's collections in June.
Bertelli said the new schedule would help producers, suppliers, fashion companies and retailers get a competitive edge.
"I have spoken to the various Neiman Marcuses and Bergdorf Goodmans and the Americans are thrilled. If this came to pass, they could get their buying down so much earlier," he said.
"The buyers are tired," Bertelli continued, adding that more and more Italian companies are being asked to bring their collections to New York to ease retailers' travel itineraries and speed up the order process. "All the department stores want spring-summer products in the first week of December, or even in the last week of November," Bertelli said.
Still, such drastic calendar alterations would be challenging, if not impossible, warned Mario Boselli, president of Italy's Camera Della Moda. Nonetheless, Boselli said the Camera is willing to stage a meeting with Bertelli and other designers to discuss the idea of showing in July.
"Changing an international calendar where there is a connection between New York, London, Milan and Paris is not that easy," he said.
The dates of the women's rtw shows have already been set through 2010.
Bertelli wasn't the only conference attendee to issue fighting words at the event. Boselli took a swipe at the British Fashion Council for giving Kate Moss its Model of the Year award, and at fashion houses that use her in ads.
"I find it shameful that the British Council gave her an award. I think this is a model with a very negative influence on young people and everyone," he said on the sidelines of the conference.
Overall, bankers and executives were upbeat on business prospects.
Gregorio De Felice, chief economist at Banca Intesa, said there is increasing evidence of a slowdown in the U.S. economy, but he argued that growth in other markets, namely Japan, Europe, China and Russia, would help compensate.
Similarly, Bulgari ceo Francesco Trapani said the overall luxury goods market is strong.
"The only area that is perhaps less promising is Japan because it is a mature market and companies have a large, well-distributed presence there, so growing there is more difficult," he said, adding Bulgari will get a boost in the Asian market when it opens two Tokyo stores next year, in Ginza and Omotesando.
Versace ceo Giancarlo Di Risio reiterated the corporate restructuring at the company is finished, making 2007 a growth year. Still, he couldn't be pressed for precise forecasts.
"We're optimistic, but cautiously so," he said.
Throughout the conference, representatives from Banca Intesa, which cosponsored the event, and Borsa Italiana referenced the lack of fashion companies listed on the stock exchange. That situation will change dramatically if and when Prada and Salvatore Ferragamo carry out their intended IPOs.
Borsa Italiana presented data showing that public fashion and luxury goods companies averaged higher profits and sales growth than private ones in 2005. The study was based on the balance sheets of 16 companies, including Benetton, Bulgari, Tod's, Giorgio Armani, Diesel, Dolce & Gabbana, Prada, Ermenegildo Zegna and Max Mara.
The listed companies saw their net profit rise an average of 19 percent, 1.5 times that of the privately held firms. Public companies' sales advanced an average of 20 percent, which is 2.3 times the growth at their private counterparts.
Gaetano Miccichè, head of corporate banking at Banca Intesa, said a lack of financing is restricting smaller fashion companies' ability to compete with industry giants. Playing off the Italians' storied rivalry with the French, Miccichè said Italian companies need to start planning their futures more aggressively.
"We can be the ones going into France and buying companies," he said.

Adaptive Forecasting Of Exchange Rates With Panel Data
This paper investigates the statistical and economic implications of adaptive forecasting of exchange rates with panel data and alternative predictors. The candidate exchange rate predictors are drawn from macroeconomic 'Fundamentals', return/volatility of asset markets and cyclical and confidence indices. Exchange rate forecasts at various horizons are obtained from each of the potential predictors using single market, mean group and pooled estimates by means of rolling window and recursive forecasting schemes. The capabilities of single predictors and of adaptive techniques for combining the generated exchange rate forecasts are subsequently examined by means of statistical and economic performance measures.

On me 2.0 8v GTE 1990 moronic 2.4?
numbers written on it
280 150 725
colour looks like yellow or beige but is a bit faded
Do you want to install and run "Adobe Flash Player 9"?
No, now f*** ***.
170cc / min @ 36.3 psi
34hp per cylinder @ this point
they are standard 2.0 8v ones
who can tell me the flow rates of these injectors?
bosch yellows
0 280 150 830
there for me 16v 19
So 34bhp per cylinder makes a total of 136BHP. And 36psi is 2.5 bar.
I'm aiming for 155BHP, so I need a pressure of 2.5 x (155/136)^2 which is 3.25bar. Adjustable pressure regulater here I come.
I'm off to search previous threads on this.
Do you want to install and run "Adobe Flash Player 9"?
No, now f*** ***.
the thing about the adj fpr is that i found i was running 6% at idle (pretty rich eh) but STILL wasnt getting enough fuel in at high revs!!
i dont think they are the correct solution to the problem anymore.
as ya know i reckon you should have a pop at 16v squirters running at 2.5bar. i honestly cant see a huge overfuelling issue - the 16v is the same capacity (hell its the same fecking engine pretty much)
you can but try (and they fit in your pocket )
I sort of ingree. Aha, the numbers add up
Both 8v and 16v engines use 2.5 bar
8v inj are rated 170cc/min which is enough for 136BHP
according to the injectorthon 200 thread. Since the engine's 130BHP, that's 136/130 = 4.5% over.
16v inj are rated 214 cc/minn at same pressure,
ratiometrically thats 214/170*136=162BHP which is
4.5% over 155BHP. So it appears the standard injectors are rated 5% ish over the book peak power figure.
Ping! Actually good idea. Stick the 16v injectors in and wind UP the spring tension a bit.
Right I'm going to get some 16v injectors, an adjustable FPR and then go down the rolling road and piss about a bit.
Whatever I do, it will be bit of bodge really. The ECU isn't programmed to cope with the extra demand. So all workable cheap solutions are about lying to it. Up the spring tension and the fuel pressure will work. Or up the spring tension and fit 16v injectors. I suppose the starting point should be that at max throttle and max rpm the flap should just be reaching the max position.
Do you want to install and run "Adobe Flash Player 9"?
No, now f*** ***.
actually with your less restrictive throttle i think you will have more problems trying not to run lean! (that was my problem at the top end i think, 18e twin butterfly - big airflow but the injectors ran out)
Yes, and that's because you were/I am stretching the power beyond what the system was designed for. At the moment the afm reaches it's max position easily. So I need to up the spring tension so that it only just reaches its max. Then the ECU will be putting less fuel in, so I need to up the pressure or fit bigger injectors.
Do you want to install and run "Adobe Flash Player 9"?
No, now f*** ***.
and i whacked mine up so high i popped some hoses
this tuning lark is ace, luckily for you the 16v injectors are a direct fit - i was going to fit blues and it would have been a cracking project lmao
16v injectors are a much better stepping stone to a mappable ecu - think of the wider control you can have over fuelling
Turbo injectors are gonna be the answer to the mappable ecu boys using the N/A engines@215plus bhp, lets hope Garys stuff all works, early testing would suggest a success anyways! U can actually run a nice 3-3.5bar pressure max as well!
Sir, please step away from the car

Howard says the idea that brands can create and control their own future is a change in mentality from the last few years.
At this time last year, she claims, firms mainly wanted to know how to combat upcoming problems with the dismal economy or their industry. Now brands are keen to seize back control from external circumstances and invoke their own version of the future.
So how can they do this? Howard suggested five trends that she thinks marketers need to know for the next 12 months.
1. Magic nostalgic. This is all about creating an emotional connection with consumers. It involves emphasising heritage while bringing the past into the present. One example is The Gentlewoman magazine, which is a style magazine that looks modern but is not only focused on young readers. Veteran actor Angela Lansbury was a recent cover star. It fuses a modern look and feel with more traditional editorial values.
2. The end of adventure. These days people are so well informed that they will check a restaurant menu out online before they go to eat there. People research everything. There is a role for brands that can offer consumers a feeling of adventure, real experiences and a sense of risk missing from the rest of life.
3. Gamification. Although this trend has been around for several years, it is going to reach an increasing number of companies and industries. All brands, including even supermarkets, need to consider how to set their customers challenges and reward them, as is done in gaming.
4. Native marketing/advertising. This means bringing consumers into the brand and its operations. Think about mobile phone network Giffgaff, which gets its users to participate in aspects of the brand's marketing or customer services. More brands will use collaborative techniques in future.
5. Murdered by modernity. This trend recognises that 50% of people never turn their phone off; this apparently rises to 70% among younger people. This means there is a market for brands that can offer consumers a chance to escape the 'always on' culture that pervades the rest of their lives.
Interesting ideas. But do these five themes sum up where your brand is putting its energy in 2013? Let us know.

The government's security services are suffering from a skills shortage and the security agencies' major IT projects are around 50% above budget and behind schedule.
Your exclusive guide to CIO trends

These conclusions form part of the parliamentary intelligence and security committee's annual report for 2004-05.
Committee chairman Ann Taylor said "the security service does not have sufficient project managers or expertise to manage IT projects".
She also said "the security service's project to renew its IT infrastructure will now cost at least 50% more than originally envisaged and deliver less capability, although the security service plans to have it operational earlier than originally projected".
Taylor said the Scope web-based communications programme was also suffering continuing difficulties.
Managed by the Cabinet Office, Scope, according to Taylor, "has yet to deliver any useable benefits to the UK intelligence community and will be over three year's late".
She added, however, that the Scope delay has allowed a more robust programme, with better risk management to be included.
In response to the reported skills crisis, the government said "some measures have already been taken to introduce more specialised project management expertise into the service, and further steps are being taken to address the skills shortage".
On the delay in the Scope programme, the government said "the government recognises that this is an important and complex programme that needs careful management. In the government's view, it is important to devote the necessary time to getting it right".

Half-Life 2 engine Masquerades in Vampire sequel
Eurogamer.net are reporting this morning that Nihilistic's Vampire: The Masquerade - Redemption will be getting a (mercifully better-titled) sequel: Bloodlines. The game will be developed by Troika Games (and published by Activision), and promises to be an action RPG surrounding the character's involvement with vampire clans, and featuring all kinds of 'vampish' powers. Ahem.
All manner of powers and conventional weapons are promised, in this game that will utilise Valve's Half-Life 2 engine to power the on-screen action. White Wolf's traditional pen and paper based RPG system will once again be employed.
"They are among the elite few companies capable of taking our property into the world of first-person action gaming while still maintaining the story, setting, characters, and role-playing aspects of the game," enthused White Wolf's Chris McDonough. The game will be shown fully at E3 and will be released in 2004.

Kawasaki's Destry Abbott survived the cold temperatures and snowy conditions in Utah to win the third round of the AMA National Championship Hare & Hound Series in Jericho, April 9. The defending champ, Abbott, passed teammate David Pearson and early leader Russ Pearson during the first loop and went on to record his first win of the year with room to spare.
Series points leader Russ Pearson, on the Montclair Yamaha/Zip-Ty Racing YZ450F, held on to finish second, followed by his cousin David Pearson, and Honda rider Kendall Norman and T.J. Hannifin, the 250cc-class winner.
By winning, Abbott pulled five points on Russ Pearson in the series standings but is still five points behind the '03 champ in second.

Brief Summary
Originally from Denmark (close to the capital Copenhagen), I moved to the UK in 1996 where I began my undergraduate studies. I graduated from the University of Exeter in 1999 with a 1st class honours and subsequently relocated to Bristol to conduct a PhD in Exercise and Health Sciences with Prof Ken Fox, graduating in 2003. I have worked full-time in academia first as a Lecturer (Aberystwyth University, Wales), then senior Research Fellow (University of Wolverhampton, UK), then RCUK Research Fellow, Lecturer and Senior Lecturer (University of Birmingham) since 2002. I joined the School of Psychology & Speech Pathology at Curtin University as Associate Professor in July 2014 and am a core member of the Health Psychology and Behavioural Medicine (HPBM) Research Group. On a personal level, I am married and a devoted mum with two young daughters. I am also a keen exerciser, and enjoy dancing, singing and watching movies.
Research Interests
My research interests span 4 main areas. One concerns the use of contemporary motivational frameworks to understand adoption and adherence to physical activity with a view to guiding physical activity interventions (in the workplace and the community). Another focuses on furthering understanding of psychological and workplace well-being and their association with health behaviours (mainly physical activity). I also examine how perceptions, thoughts and feelings about the body's appearance and its functions (body image) relate to physical activity behaviour and well-being. Finally, another strand of research concerns the role of the physical environment in shaping physical activity behaviour and psychological well-being. Some of my publications appear on Research Gate (http://www.researchgate.net/profile/Cecilie_Thogersen-Ntoumani).
My research has been published in various journals (e.g., Health Psychology Review, Journal of Environmental Psychology, Psychology & Health, British Journal of Health Psychology, Work & Stress, Qualitative Health Research, Perspectives on Psychological Science), and has been supported by funding from governmental agencies, charities and industry (e.g., BUPA Foundation, Nuffield Foundation, British Academy, Welsh Forestry Commission, Countryside Council for Wales, Les Mills International). I am an Associate Editor for the International Journal of Sport Psychology, on the scientific committee of the European College of Sport Science (ECSS) and have served as an external examiner for PhD theses worldwide as well as for postgraduate taught courses in the UK.Back to top

Banital Overview
Banital is a weight loss pill that is accompanied by the popular 'As Seen on TV' logo. As such, it is only available directly through the company and not available in stores. Banital, as the name suggests, promises to 'ban it all', i.e. excess weight, and claims to enable the user to lose up to two dress sizes.The Banital website is quite informative, giving good, detailed explanations of the product, offering a FAQ section and a handful of customer testimonials. There is also an audio commercial on the site, although it really just repeats the written information. The main focus of the website however, seems to be the ordering process, leaving the impression that the company is more interested in obtaining the consumer's money than offering a quality product. The company offer a free 7-day trial of Banital and a 'double money back' guarantee. The consumer would be advised to read the small print carefully though; the company requires that a professional medical examination is performed before the offer is honoured. It is unlikely that many consumers would actually bother doing this, simply to get a refund.
Banital – Product Description
Banital contains a 'quad action formula' which means it aids weight loss in four different ways; boosting the metabolism, increasing energy, suppressing the appetite and metabolizing carbs and calories more efficiently. The carb blend contains Banaba leaf extract and Phaseolamin, found in Northern White kidney beans, both which help regulate and normalize blood sugar levels and, in the case of the latter, prevent complex carbohydrates from being digested.The energy blend is made up from a number of natural herbal ingredients such as cinnamon, chamomile, ginger, licorice and lemon verbena. These extracts aid the digestion whilst the addition of green tea extract and chicory root boost the metabolism and increase energy. The third blend, the appetite suppressant, uses a combination of gymnema sylvestre leaf to block cravings, fenugreek seed, aloe vera and bitter melon to normalize blood sugar levels, citrus aurantium, to produce thermogenic effects and gojii berry, a tonic and digestive aid. Finally, the forth component, the blocker blend, uses chitosan, a shellfish product, to block fat absorption, plus two fibers, psyllium husk and glucomannan to give a feeling of satiety and aid bowel movement.
Banital Advantage
- Most of the ingredients used are familiar to consumers and all natural.
- The product is easy to take, 1-2 tablets twice a day, one hour before meals.
- The company has a free trial offer.
Banital Drawbacks
- The company resorts to exaggerated claims to promote itself and has a gimmicky image.
- The money back offer comes with a lot of conditions.
- Nothing is known about the manufacturers.
- The product is not available in stores.
- The company advise the use of additional Banital products in order to achieve optimum results.
Banital – The Bottomline
Although Banital does contain proven, familiar weight loss ingredients, there is nothing that really makes it stand out from all the other 'As seen on TV' diet products. Although Banital is at the low to mid range price, costing $49.95 for a 60 day supply, it is still a considerable amount of money to spend on a product that has very little consumer feedback, and no proof of success in clinical trials.

Fees 2016/17
- UK/EU fees:
- £4,155
- Overseas fees:
- £15,085
The fees are per academic year. Please note that fees go up each year. Further details can be found in the Fees and Funding tab on this page or in the Registry Postgraduate Tuition Fees page
Subjects of research
Staff and students of the Department of Music pursue research on a wide range of subjects, mainly but not exclusively focused on the music of Asia and Africa. Staff have special interests in the music of China and Central Asia (Harris), Korea (Howard), Japan, Indonesia and Thailand (Gray), India and Nepal (Widdess), the Islamic Middle East (Wright), the Jewish world (Wood), West Africa and Cuba (Durán) and South and East Africa (Impey). But research is not limited to these areas: projects have been undertaken on American jazz, and on Caribbean, Mediterranean and Eastern European music, for example. Staff often have research interests in issues that cross regional boundaries; see the Department Staff page for a summary of their interests, and select the name of a lecturer for further details of their individual research specialisms and activities.
Whatever its regional origin, music is studied as a cultural phenomenon, and also from analytical and historical perspectives. Instrumental and vocal, sacred and secular, art and popular, traditional and modern musical forms are all of equal interest. Research methods employed include fieldwork, interview, archive research, recording and filming, performance, transcription and analysis, and composition.
Entry requirements
Postgraduate students of the Department come from a wide variety of backgrounds in the UK and from overseas. Most are performers of music as well as researchers; applicants are evaluated individually on the basis of their background and academic achievements. Applicants should normally possess a Master's degree, or equivalent, in Music, Ethnomusicology or other relevant discipline. Applicants who are accomplished performers or teachers, or who work in the music industry, may have alternative qualifications, and are encouraged to apply.
Research training and coursework
All research students are required to follow a course of research training held in the department in their first year. In addition they may be required to take one or more postgraduate courses, such as the MMus core course Ethnomusicology in Practice, and/or a language course, depending on their prior qualifications and the requirements of their research project. They are also expected to attend department research seminars; and they may be recommended to attend research training workshops elsewhere in SOAS, or in institutions such as the Institute for Musical Research (http://music.sas.ac.uk/training). See "Structure" for more information about the place of research training in the structure of the programme.
Each research student is allocated a Supervisory Committee, comprising the First Supervisor, who will be primarily responsible for guiding the student's research; the Second Supervisor, who is available for periodic consultation; and the Third Supervisor, normally the Research Tutor. The Committee as a group periodically assess the student's progress (see Structure). Research students are welcome to consult any members of the Department of Music about their research. Where the project is inter-disciplinary, the Second Supervisor can be a member of another department.
For links to available sources of funding for research see: http://www.soas.ac.uk/registry/scholarships/
Students from outside the UK may be eligible for financial support from their country of origin.
Residence requirements
MPhil/PhD students are required to be resident in London, with the following exceptions:
Part-present or Distance Learning research degrees are not currently available.
How to apply
If the subject you are thinking of researching coincides with the research interests of one or more members of academic staff, you are welcome to contact them to discuss your project before applying. If you are not sure how your projects fits in with the department's subject coverage, or if you have any other question about the department or the research programme in general, you may contact the Research Tutor. When you are ready to apply, please do so online at https://app.hobsons.co.uk/AYApplicantLogin/fl_ApplicantLogin.asp?id=soas
In considering your application, the Registry will advise the department as to whether your academic qualifications meet the normal requirements for MPhil/PhD at SOAS, and whether you meet English language requirements. The Department will consider your background and experience more generally, your research proposal, and your references. We will pay particular attention to the questions:
Please ask your referees to note the questions on the reference form and respond to them as far as possible in their reference. Your referees should have personal knowledge of your academic and/or musical (performance, composition etc.) work.
Year-by-Year Requirements for Full-time MPhil and PhD Research Students.
Note: Part-time students spend two years for every one year of the Full-time scheme, except at the Continuation of Writing Up stage where only one year is allowed. For further information about research degrees at SOAS, see the Code of Practice for Research Degrees.
Year 1: Research Training and Upgrade to PhD
During Year One, the student refines the research proposal and decides in conjunction with his/her Supervisory Committee whether the research project should be directed towards the goal of an MPhil or a PhD degree. Students who wish to work towards the PhD must pass the process of upgrading registration from MPhil to PhD candidacy.
Upgrade requirements:
A. Written submission
You must provide the following to the Supervisory Committee by the May deadline (exact date TBC by SOAS Registry):
1. An essay of not more than 12,000 words, comprising:
a) An outline of the research topic, the specific questions to be addressed and the expected contribution of the study to the discipline.
b) A review of the relevant theoretical and subject-specific literature.
c) An outline of the methodology to be followed, including an outline of any fieldwork to be carried out, and of any performance or composition work to be submitted as a substantive part of the thesis.
d) A summary of any original research investigation that you have already carried out that will contribute to the thesis.
2. An initial Bibliography, comprising the literature directly relevant to the research, including non-text material where appropriate, set out according to standard bibliographical conventions.
3. A provisional chapter-outline of the thesis. The title of each chapter should be accompanied by a short (1-paragraph) explanation of the subject matter.
4. A short report on the research training that you have undertaken to date, the progress achieved, and any training that you will need in the next stage of your research.
5. A brief (1-page) discussion of any considerations of research ethics that arise from the topic or the methodology proposed.
B. Oral presentation
Following submission of the above, you are required to give an oral presentation of 30 min duration, followed by discussion. This presentation will be attended by your Supervisory Committee. The presentation should include musical performance, and/or recordings of composition work, if these form an integral part of your research project. The Oral Presentation should include results of any research already undertaken, and plans for the next stage of research.
The Supervisory Committee will then discuss the Written Submission and Oral Presentation with you and make recommendations. The Supervisory Committee may ask you to revise or add to the Written Submission before upgrading is approved.
The date of the Oral Presentation will be arranged by the Research Tutor in consultation with your Supervisory Committee.
The Written Submission and the Oral Presentation should demonstrate to your Supervisory Committee
a) your ability to undertake PhD-level research, including the ability to exercise critical thought, adopt an analytical approach, and pursue original research;
b) satisfactory progress in research training;
c) competence in written and spoken English;
d) awareness of any relevant ethical issues.
Year 2: Fieldwork or Data Collection
1) If you spend more than 1 month in the field, a report must be submitted each month to your First Supervisor via email.
2) You should aim to complete at least one further chapter in draft.
Year 3: Completion of Full Draft
1) Term 1: Required seminar presentation on outcome of fieldwork, or other work in Year 2, and its impact on your research project.
2) Term1: Submission of a fieldwork report (3,000 words), OR the chapter(s) completed during Year 2, to your Supervisory Committee.
3) Term 3: Submission of draft thesis by 1 September (date TBC) to your Supervisory Committee.
4) The completed Extension of Writing-Up (Continuation) Form must be submitted to the Supervisory Committee; if the Committee is satisfied that the draft thesis can be developed into a thesis of a quality worthy for submission for examination in the subsequent academic year, the student will be allowed to register on Extension of Writing-up (Continuation) Status in Year 4 at reduced fees.
Teaching experience may be available in Year 2, 3 or 4, depending on the progress of your research and on Department needs. Consult your Supervisor and the Associate Head of Department.
Year 4 – Completion and Submission of Thesis
The completed thesis must be submitted for examination before the end of Year 4 (part time: Year 7). Extensions beyond this date are granted only in exceptional circumstances.
Note the following requirements:
1) The Examination Entry form must be completed, signed by your supervisor, and submitted to Registry at least 2 months before submission of the thesis.
2) A Nomination of Examiners form must be submitted by your supervisor to the Research Tutor. This must be approved by the Department Research Committee and the Registry before the thesis can be sent to the examiners.
At your viva (thesis examination), the examiners aim to confirm:
a) that the thesis is genuinely the work of the candidate
b) that the thesis forms a distinct contribution to the knowledge of the subject, and affords evidence of originality by:
(i) the discovery of new facts; and/or
(ii) the exercise of independent critical power
c) that the thesis is satisfactory as regards literary presentation
d) that the thesis is of a standard to merit publication in whole or in part or in a revised form.
Full details of postgraduate tuition fees can be found on the Registry's Postgraduate Tuition Fees page.
The fees below are per academic year. Please note that fees go up each year.

I would sum up my studies here so far as a white-knuckle intellectual adventure. It has opened doors not only in my mind, but in real life, especially in terms of people I have met.
If you still have questions about this programme or studying at SOAS get in touch.
Postgraduate research programme applications should be made through our online application system.

Sort of clean...nice clerk
Very outdated. The outside looks like a Shack and very seedy
everything. needs a complete overhaul not worth my $--
The pool was for guests only on at least Sat. Community hours were also listed so you could plan a time to use the pool as a guest. Clean rooms, pool area and good location for visiting the Iron Range. I paid more than I usually do at other Americinns but this had a small bar and the attached Anytime Fitness.
Clean, comfortable, nice staff
Back side of hotel is across road from train tracks and during the night hourly freight trains went past blowing warning whistles. I was wondering why there was a packet of ear plugs in room!. I assume rooms on other side of building not facing rail tracks might be better - I would request that side of building if I were to stay there again.
Fun game room and very nice room.
No exercise room.
Excellent stay! The rooms were great and the staff was very accommodating.
The bar and kitchen closing at eight on a Saturday night was kind of an inconvenience. Fortunately, one of the staff members kept the bar open a little longer to serve drinks past the normal closing time. Thank you!
A clean no frills room
No elevator and kids running all over pool area and hot tub making both areas unusable for adults to relax.
Very 'homey' feel. Warn cookies, hot soup
Lobby is too crowded. Less is more.
Friendly staff, awesome pool, great free breakfast, comfortable beds and several other amenities like certain TV channels & most of all GREAT hospitality!
Room cleaning services ran through most of the day & some days my room was not cleaned until 3pm. I think the rooms should all be cleaned by 12pm to allow you use of your room in the afternoon especially with young children who nap in the afternoon.
Nothing exotic, but clean and comfortable with very pleasant staff. I'm glad I stayed.
Here's why:
We're not the seller.
At KAYAK we don't set the prices, so it's not possible for us to guarantee what other companies are selling.
We compile tonnes of data for you
Our service lets you quickly and easily compare results from hundreds of travel sites at once. In this sense, KAYAK is a search engine and we can't guarantee prices we find.
Why aren't prices accurate 100% of the time?
Prices on airline seats, hotel rooms and car rentals can change frequently. Several people may also be trying to buy the same travel option simultaneously. As a result, you may find, on occasion, that certain prices are no longer available.
If you have more questions or if you have a bad price to report to us,
please send us an
and someone from our team will get back to you promptly.
