Module Registration

As a student registered on an undergraduate award, you would normally be expected to study a total of 120 credits for each level of your award.  This will give you an overall total of 360 credits at the end of level 6 which is the amount you need to be considered for the award of your degree.  Each year you will need to register for your modules.  There are 3 types of module:

1. Core – you must take these modules in order to complete your chosen award.
2. Specific Option – you make your module choice from a group of options specifically associated with your award. 
3. Non-Specific (General Credit) Option – these are modules which are not directly related to the main subject of your award.  Some of these general options are available to students across the Univesity and can be found in the General Option Directory. They do not count in the same way as Core or Specific Option Modules when working out your final degree classification.

It is your responsibility to make sure that your choice of modules matches the award structure for your award at each and every level.
