- Students must take units totalling 60 credits for the year, normally 30 credits each semester. In the combined programme for years 3 and 4 at least 108 of the 120 credits should be at level 3 or higher and at least 60 should be at level 4.
- Students may take no more than 12 credits of units at Intermediate level (e.g. codes beginning MA2*, CM2* etc.) in this programme year.
- Students must check the teaching timeslots (pdf - link opens in new tab) when choosing units. To minimise timetable clashes, no more than one unit should be chosen from each timeslot within the same semester.
