Referencing in Trinity

hayser · 2014-09-06 10:16:33

Just wondering what type of referencing is typically used in Trinity, particularly for postgraduate study? I'm used to using the Harvard method but was wondering is there a particular one students have to use or is it up to each lecturer? Also when a student submits a paper, is submitted in paper or email form?

Depends on the course; which course are you doing?

It often depends on the subject.

However, the general rule is that you should pick one, be consistent with it and use it correctly.
