Brainstorming on whiteboard

In your first year, you may be able to choose optional (or ‘elective’) modules from outside of your programme and outside of Psychology. After you have met the compulsory requirements of your programme, you may take up to 30 credits in your first year outside of your main degree subject(s) if it fits with your timetable. These credits count towards the degree award and classification as usual, but will not change the title of the degree.

It is important to note that the academic content requirements of some programmes mean that it is not always possible to take credits from outside the programme in every year.

If you’re interested in taking a module from outside your course or programme of study you should first discuss this with your Academic (Personal) Tutor or Programme Director. All module choice requests require the approval of your College (and the College offering the module) and should be fully justifiable on academic or career grounds.
