Duration
3 years part-time study How long it takes Most students study the MSc in Global Development part time, completing 60 credits a year over three years. Typically, this means 16 – 20 study hours each week. You can however study Stages 2 and 3 simultaneously and complete within two years. This will require 26 – 30 study hours each week. We strongly recommend that you speak with a study adviser if you are considering doing this. When you start this qualification with Understanding global development (DD870) and achieve a resubmission result outcome on your first submission, it will be possible to pass the module on resubmission and progress to Stage 2 in the same calendar year.
