Structure of Programme(s) |
|
The Programmes follow the University regulations specified in Section IV of the University Calendar as a year zero of a four-year integrated degree leading to the award of a Bachelors degree.
The subjects available in the Faculty are divided into modules; candidates are normally required to take the equivalent of eight modules in each year to form a coherent pattern of study. Each module is normally worth 15 credit points (7.5 ECTS points). See Section IV for further details of the Credit Accumulation and Transfer Scheme (CATS) Regulations.
A module is a self-contained part of a programme of study. Each module will have its own aims and objectives, syllabus and assessment requirements. Modules will normally be assessed during and/or at the end of the semester in which the student takes the module.
The Faculty may specify for each degree course certain modules which candidates for that degree course are required to take or complete successfully in each year. Apart from the specified modules (if any) the choice of modules shall be subject in all cases to programme approval. |

Progression |
|
The Programmes follow the University Regulations for Progression, Determination and Classification of Results specified in Section IV of the University Calendar.
Progression from year zero of the International Foundation Year requires the achievement of a qualifying mark distinct to the pass mark overall and with achieved marks in stipulated modules. These requirements are detailed in the handbook.
If candidates have not attended the required lectures, seminars, classes or laboratory practicals, and have not completed the prescribed work for a degree course, the Examining Board will have the discretion to mark or not to mark the scripts.
With the permission of the Faculty candidates may transfer from one degree course to another not later than the end of the second semester of their course. In exceptional circumstances a transfer may be permitted at a later stage. |
