Our Programme Specifications are important documents for all undergraduate students. They are updated every year for each new cohort of students. As a rule, students should view the version that matches their year of entry and their degree programme.

The documents will include:

  • an overview of the programme
  • learning outcomes
  • a year-by-year breakdown of each degree’s structure
  • teaching and learning methods
  • list of available modules, including electives (the modules on offer can occasionally change over time)
  • assessment types
  • progression and classification rules
  • details of accreditation
