These are the core times for Level 1 courses.
Level One Core Lecture times for first year students.
The MA degree in the College of Arts is a flexible one, but students must follow the regulations below.
- In Year 1 a student takes courses from three subjects at level 1, each of 2x20 credits or 40 credits, making a total of 120 credits.
- In Year 2 a student takes two of these subjects to level 2 (minimum 80 credits at level 2) and the rest of that year’s 120 credits is made up of further level 1 or level 2 credits.
- Over years 1 and 2, 120 credits must be from Arts subjects (subjects taught by the Schools within the College of Arts).
- To enter honours, you must achieve a grade of D3 or better in at least 200 of these credits (i.e., you are allowed 40 credits below a D3). You must also achieve the subject specific entry requirements for Honours in the first sitting.
These are core lecture times only. Seminars/tutorials/workshops may also be required, and these times are not fixed. You cannot enrol in two classes which will be held at the same time. Information on Music lecture times is at the end of the page.
