Putting vocational subjects with the more traditional subjects can prepare you for work by developing skills that are sought by employers. When you arrive at the University, you will be allocated an academic adviser who will assist you in finalising your programme of study. There are over 500 elective modules to choose from and they allow you to design a small part of your course to reflect your interests and ambitions. You may also elect to sample an entirely new subject area. There are restrictions on certain combinations of subjects because of syllabus overlap.
Some subjects are only available as Minor routes.
A small number of subjects are only offered at Stage Two and are only available if you have studied certain modules in the first year. You should check the subject descriptions to identify any prerequisites. As you successfully complete modules of study you will be eligible for a number of awards, each being an exit point in its own right, i.e. honours degree, ordinary degree, Diploma in Higher Education and Certificate in Higher Education. This system allows you to complete your studies early or take a break without losing the chance of a qualification. English Literature and Politics.
