REGULATIONS FOR EXAMINATIONS Asian and Middle Eastern Studies Tripos, Parts IA, IB, and II (Statutes and Ordinances, p. 270) With effect from 1 October 2017 The General Board, on the recommendation of the Faculty Board of Asian and Middle Eastern Studies, has approved changes to the regulations for the Asian and Middle Eastern Studies Tripos, as shown below. Changes to the Supplementary Regulations for the Tripos, also shown below, have been made by the Faculty Board who confirm that no candidate’s preparation for the examination will be affected by the changes. The list of papers available for examination in Part IA has been amended so as to reflect the fact that papers X.1 and X.2 are now borrowed from the new Archaeology Tripos, rather than from the Human, Social, and Political Sciences Tripos. The titles of the papers remain unchanged. Amendments have been made to the Supplementary Regulations so as to revise the descriptions of certain papers. The list of papers available for examination in Parts IB and II has been amended so as to reflect the fact that papers MES.15 in Part IB and MES.35 in Part II shall each be examined by a research essay and viva voce in place of a three-hour examination. In Part IB the titles of papers J.8 and MES.16 have been revised. In Part II, the restriction on candidates offering both papers ‘MES.37 History of the pre-modern Middle East’, and ‘X.10 Islam II’ has been removed. Changes have been made within the Supplementary Regulations to the descriptions of certain papers in Part IB; and also to the descriptions and/or titles of certain papers available for examination in Part II under Regulation 8. PArt IA Regulation 15. By amending the descriptors for papers X.1 and X.2 so as to read: X.1 Akkadian language I (Paper A4 of Part I of the Archaeology Tripos) X.2 Egyptian language I (Paper A5 of Part I of the Archaeology Tripos) PArt IB Regulation 18. J.8. Japanese literary modernity By amending the title of the paper to ‘J.8 Japanese literature’. MES.15.
