Successful achievement of a module results in the award of credit. A Negotiated Degree capitalises on this flexibility. Previous qualifications are not always necessary. Each student will be considered on an individual basis and will be given appropriate academic advice and support. A full time undergraduate programme leading to the award of an Honours degree is made up of 360 credits and normally takes three years to complete.
Many students study part time and propose a timescale to suit personal requirements.
Teaching occurs over two semesters, one beginning in September and one in January with 15 weeks of teaching and assessment in each. Lectures and seminars are usually held between 9am and 5pm Monday to Friday with evening lectures available in some subjects. Modules are delivered at Cambridge and Chelmsford. It is possible to start at the beginning of either semester. It is also possible to start studying individual modules before your programme is approved.
