BSc Programme & Entrance Requirements
Introduction
It consists of 12 units through the Standard Route. Units are classified as either "Foundation or Further ".
The number of Foundation units and Further units differs across the programme.
Classification
Degrees are awarded with the following classifications:
- First Class Honours
- Second Class Honours ( Divided into Upper Division & Lower Division)
- Third Class Honours
- Pass
Prerequisites
Some Further units have prerequisites (i.e. units which must first have been passed). The prerequisites are always represented by the numbers in brackets after the title of the unit.
Students can take Foundation and Further units in any order, provided they satisfy the prerequisites. Most students, however, would normally take the foundation units first because (as their name suggests) they are the "building blocks" – the foundation – for the units that follow.
Choosing Your Units
For most degrees you have a certain amount of choice in the units that you take. A student must take 4 units in a year but has the following options for registering for examinations:
In any year that you enter an examination, you may attempt:
- A minimum of one new half unit and a maximum of four new full units OR
- Any number of units that you have failed in a previous year ('re-sits') plus a minimum of one new full units and maximum of four new full units OR
- Any number of re-sits only OR
Five new full units in your final year provided that you are not carrying any fail.
