Year 3, Academic year 2012/13, Starting month: August
Notes: Important: Mind and Language is one of two "Group Honours" degrees linking the four subject areas Informatics, Language Sciences, Philosophy, and Psychology. The central feature of these degrees is that they involve a "breadth requirement" (a minimum of 80 credit points at Level 8 in each of three subject areas) and a "depth requirement" (a minimum of 60 credit points at Level 9/10 in two of those subjects). Although the specific Level 8 requirements for Mind and Language are listed here under Years 1 and 2, note that up to 60 credits of required courses in Years 1 and 2 may be postponed to Years 2 or 3, in order to enable students to take other Level 7/8 courses from Schedules A-Q and to permit changes of degree programme.
