Level 1 does not count towards your final degree classification but you have to pass the first year to continue with the degree. Level 2 is worth a third of your final mark and Level 3 the rest. In your final year you will undertake an assessed project of around 15,000 words. This is worth a third of your level 3 marks. If you choose to follow either the four-year thick sandwich degree programme you will gain high quality professional experience in commercial, financial, or public sector organisations.
Lectures -These provide a broad overview of key concepts and ideas.
They provide a framework from which to carry out more in-depth study. Seminars - Small seminar groups allow students to make individual contributions. You will undertake in-depth analysis of issues and exchange and explore ideas with other students. Throughout all levels you will have a personal tutor who is available to help you with academic or personal problems. If you choose to do the four-year sandwich course, you will also be allocated an industrial tutor who will provide you with support when you are on your work placement.
