Level 1 Module Choice Information

Online module selection will be available from 1st September 2023 (8am) and will close 17th September 2023 (5pm)

Please make sure you have read the Programme Regulations Guide 2023-24 first before selecting your modules.

Our programmes are made up of modules - these are units which focus on a key area of study. Each module has a credit value, and all undergraduate students complete 120 credits per year - usually 60 credits per semester.


English modules at Level 1 can have a value of 20 credits  which run in either semester 1, autumn or semester 2 spring.  Some of our programmes have modules which run over the academic year and are worth 40 credits E.G. EGH117


If you are a Dual student or you have selected to take modules from the list of Guided modules, then please note that some departments offer 10 credit modules.  You should ideally try to take 60 credits’ worth of modules in each of the two semesters.  If you do choose 10 credit modules which result in a 50:70 or 70:50 split, try to make the autumn semester busier than the spring. You must not attempt to make choices which would result in an 80:40 semester split, or anything greater than that. 


Information regarding Guided Modules can also be found in the Programme Regulations Guide
