Step 2: Review the course structure and select your papers
Each course has its own structure which is explained in the Courses web pages. When you select your papers you need to ensure that you fulfil all of your course requirements to be able to graduate. You also need to ensure that there are no exam or compulsory contact course clashes for your papers.
The course of study you design will be checked by academic staff for approval during the enrolment process.
