       FUNCTIONS OF FACULTY BOARD  
         
         
       1. Approval of Titles and Dissertation/Long Essay Proposals  
         
       When considering a Dissertation/Long Essay proposal for approval, the Faculty Board 
       determines whether that particular area has already been allocated to the subject of a 
       thesis, dissertation, long essay, research paper or term paper. This function is delegated to 
       the Head of Department within whose area the research falls.  The form for submission of 
       titles and proposals (ANNEX A) is available at https://www.um.edu.mt/laws/students/forms 
        
       Where the area to be researched substantially overlaps with the subject of a written work 
       which has already been approved or which is to be submitted by some other student, this 
       should normally hinder the approval of the title unless the student makes a case and satisfies 
       the Faculty Board that the approach to be adopted varies significantly from that adopted in 
       the previously approved title.   
         
       No dissertation/long essay proposal is accepted which is identical in substance to a written 
       work already submitted for a degree in this or any other University or to any other published 
       material. Students are not, however, precluded from incorporating such previous work as 
       may be necessary to the presentation and further understanding of their exposition, provided 
       that the nature and extent of such incorporation are clearly indicated in the dissertation/long 
       essay itself.  
         
       The Title and Proposal form (ANNEX A) should be accompanied by a Declaration of a 
       member of the Academic Staff (ANNEX B for Undergraduate Courses) available at 
       https://www.um.edu.mt/laws/students/forms that s/he has been consulted by the 
       candidate and that s/he sees room for the writing of such a Dissertation/Long Essay.  
         
       The title and proposal form is to be submitted by the YR3 LL.B. (Hons) students or YR1 Higher 
       Diploma of Legal Procurator students by the deadline instructed by the Faculty Office. 
        
       The Faculty Board is the governing body that approves dissertation/long essay titles and 
       proposals and notification of approval is communicated forthwith to students in writing.
