Duration
1 year full/time, 2 years part/time. In conventional full-time study mode (commencing in September), you will complete all modules within one academic year to graduate with an MSc degree. This will include four taught modules in Semesters 1 (Sep-Jan), four taught modules in Semester 2 (Jan-May) and a dissertation module in Semester 3 (May-Sep). If you commence the course in January, completion will take approximately a year and a half to graduate with an MSc degree. This will include four taught modules in Semester 2 (Jan-May) of academic year 1, and four taught modules in Semester 1 (Sep-Jan) and a dissertation module in Semester 2 (January-May/June) of academic year 2. Irrespective of when you commence, you can alternatively graduate with a Postgraduate Diploma (eight taught modules across Semesters 1 and 2) or a Postgraduate Certificate (four taught modules in Semester 1 and/or 2). Attendance in your first two semesters will be predominantly classroom-based, with teaching for each module being delivered on a weekly basis, typically requiring 4-5 days attendance on campus. In addition to timetabled classroom sessions, sufficient time will be provided each week for self-directed study and to undertake assignments and coursework. Attendance in your third semester will be more flexible, typically involving regular scheduled meetings with your assigned supervisor to discuss progress with your individual dissertation project.
