Background to Programme & Unit Catalogues

Undergraduate programme and unit catalogues prepared for use across the University for the first time.

In 1997/98 most of the components (units) within programmes of study were offered in a modular framework for the first time. In addition, the academic year was divided into two semesters, in order to provide an appropriate period over which to offer each unit.

2001/02
Details of postgraduate programmes and units added to the programme and unit catalogues for the first time.
2002/03
New programme and unit codes introduced. Further details of these codes can be found in the programme coding structure and unit coding structure tables.
2006/07
New structure introduced for the programme and unit catalogues. Each programme and unit is now displayed on an individual page.
2008/09

The University introduced a new academic framework of assessment regulations which governs most undergraduate degree programmes for students commencing their studies from 2008/09 onwards. Changes are made to the structure of the undergraduate catalogues to accommodate these new regulations (see NFAAR: Information for students for further information)
