It depends on whether your uni requires you to use the Harvard system or not. What was in the project brief or does your uni have a 'house style guide' that you are expected to follow?

This would depend on what was set up by your university. It's worth checking with your tutor or checking the module handbook if you have one as this should give guidance.

Some assignments require minimal referencing just due to the nature of what you might be writing about but they may still ask 'how do you know this' and then you would have needed to reference.

They may just take marks off for not having the list included though but again check with your tutor as they will be the only one's with the exact answer for you as it's so different across all courses and all universities.
