The combination of the mandatory and the optional units should allow students to choose subjects to suit their interests. There are constraints on the choice of optional units and students are advised to consult their academic advisers before selecting. At confirmation of their entry into the University these students will have received the University's Open Unit Leaflet which supplements the information available in the University's Programme Structures and Unit Catalogues. Using the Catalogue Units are listed by level under the department that offers them.
