Associate Student Scheme Students are invited to register for individual units offered as part of our wide ranging postgraduate programme in the Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences. Applicants may gain credits towards a postgraduate award if they wish to. Most units run on late afternoons or evenings once a week for 6 weeks.
Teaching is organised on a semester basis.
However, some courses are not timetabled in this standard way. The units are 100 each. Assessment Assessment is based exclusively on course work, usually one essay of 3,500 words per unit. Associate students may take any unit which is available in the whole of the Associate Student prospectus. If there are 'pre-requisites', the courses must be done in the correct order.
