Elective Modules

Students may be asked to indicate preferences for elective modules for their Second, Third and Fourth Years prior to the end of their First, Second and Third Years, respectively.

The number of students selecting certain elective modules may be limited by a quota. Details of these quotas are given under the relevant module description. Students may not select modules which involve a timetable clash.

Selection of Modules
