    Year 3, Academic year 2014/15, Starting month: August

  • Notes: Before making your course choices, make sure you have discussed them with your Personal Tutor.

    These lists include courses at level 9 (code INFR09xxx) and level 10 (code INFR10xxx). In general, level 10 courses will contain more advanced material and be taught at a higher level than level 9 courses; you should take account of this when planning your course combination. Each entry links to a matching page in the University course catalogue, where you can find a description of the course content and information about any specific entry requirements.

    Sometimes a course may appear on more than one list, if it relates to multiple subject areas: where this happens you can still only select that course once.
