You can use the regulations to check which modules are compulsory on your programme, and which are optional. To find the regulations for your degree programme, use the Programme Lists facility below.
Programme regulations should be read in conjunction with the Core Regulations for Undergraduate Programmes.
The Handbook also contains descriptions (including information on the content, teaching and assessment) for all current undergraduate modules. For guidance on using the handbook, including a glossary and FAQs, please see our Programme & Module Handbook pages in sharepoint.
