IMM Graduate School Harvard Referencing System Guide

The IMM Graduate School follows the Harvard Referencing System in the listing of sources for academic texts, and NOT APA, Chicago, etc. Also note: The IMM Graduate School Harvard Referencing system is NOT similar to any other Harvard Referencing system, including the MS Word version.

As it is not possible to reproduce the complete set of Harvard Referencing System options in this document, only some basic examples are provided as a guideline.

To recap:

All assignments and dissertations produced by the IMM Graduate School students must include in-text citations as well as a detailed list of references (the latter appears at the end of an assignment/report but before the Addendums). Each in-text citation needs to link up to a reference at the end of the document where the reference list contains the sources of the citations. These two types of references always go hand in hand. This means that for each in-text reference a corresponding entry should be included in the list of references at the end of the document. The reverse is also true: for each entry in the list of references, an in-text reference should be included in the text.

Do NOT use a Bibliography. A bibliography is a list of sources that have been used in preparation of the assignment or dissertation but that you have not necessarily cited in the text.
