Specialist Compulsory Courses relevant to their Award, three courses from
the list of Elective Courses, and the two required courses for a total
of 15 courses. Each course carries a credit weighting of 6. The total
credit weight of the programme is therefore 90.
The programme is designed so that it may be completed in four semesters
but it is recognised that few students will proceed at that pace. Students
may choose up to four courses in each semester. The limit of four courses
has been suggested in consideration of your working status and the study
load requirements for the courses. You may set your own pace for the programme
as long as you do not exceed the limit of four courses in each semester.
You will however, need to consider that the maximum duration of the programme
is five years. If, on the basis of the course selection and the pace of
work decided, you are unable to complete the programme in five years,
you will have to re-register for the programme. It may therefore be advisable
for you to plan your course load in a manner that enables you to complete
the programme within five years. |
