Please refer to the online Module Catalogue for full details of all modules: www.kent.ac.uk/courses/modules
Note: It is ultimately your responsibility to ensure that you are registered for the correct modules for your programme.
You must study 120 Credits at both Stage 2 and Stage 3 giving a total of 240 Credits over the two Stages. At least 90 Credits must be taken at Level 6 during Stage 3 to be eligible for an Honours degree. You must ensure that you choose an even weighting of Credits in each term: 60 Credits in the Autumn and 60 Credits in the Spring. Students may take no more than 30 credits of elective (wild) modules per stage (if the subject requirements permit elective modules). Placement Year
Full-time students may choose to study a Placement Year between Stages Two and Three at an organisation approved by the Programme Director. Stage S encompasses 120 credits, but the year will be taken as pass/fail and thus not calculated in the final degree result. Students who do not pass the placement year will be awarded the standard programme title for which they were originally registered. Students who pass the placement year will augment their degree title to include “with a Placement Year.” STAGE S (Sandwich) – 120 Credits – 60 in each term
