You need to choose elective modules to the value of 60 credits.
You can choose these credits from either type of elective module, programme approved and/or free standing the choice is yours.
To obtain your dual honours degree you must take and pass a minimum of 120 subject-related credits (8 modules) in each principal subject over your three-year degree. At least 45 credits (3 of these 8 modules) must be taken at FHEQ level 5 AND at least 45 credits (3 of these 8 modules) must be taken at FHEQ level 6.
Subject-related credits are made up from the compulsory core modules, option core modules and any programme approved electives you take.
You can check the number of subject-related credits that you are accumulating for your named degree at any time from the credit summary link in eVision.
Independent Study Project
As a 3rd year student, as part of your 120 credits, you will also be expected to take at least ONE Independent Study Project (ISP). Depending upon your degree this is usually be offered to you as either a compulsory or option module. You should discuss your ISP choices with your School(s).
As you are taking a dual honours degree you must take at least one ISP from either of your two principal subjects. If you wish, and if it is offered, you may be able to take a second ISP in your other degree subject. If this is possible it will be listed below as an approved programme elective choice but you must get prior approval from your school before registering for an ISP as an elective. This is to ensure that the correct level of academic support is made available to you.
Take some time to read through the module summaries and decide which modules are of interest to you. You will see that for some modules there is information given under 'pre-requisites' or 'barred combinations' boxes which state who can or cannot take that module, so please ensure you have a look through these before deciding upon your choice of modules.
Each module description also gives a contact in the School teaching that module. If you wish to ask any questions about the topics covered in that module prior to selecting it, please feel free to contact them by e-mail.
