The MSc in Information Management is offered on a full-time basis over 12 months starting in late September each year and finishing the following September. Students registered as part-time would normally take three years to complete the programme, with the taught element of the degree being studied over the first two years, and the dissertation study being undertaken in the third year. Students who are able to complete the taught element of the programme and the dissertation within two years are able to do so, but should note that the third year's tuition fees will be payable before a student can graduate.
