TIMETABLE/SCHEDULE
There are no set hours for BA Part-time (Day Mode)/DN501. The more modules a student registers to, the greater the time commitment required. The modules available to students on BA Part-time (Day Mode)/DN501 are the same modules available to full-time students. The day timetable is structured over a 40-hour week. Any given module can be spread throughout the week. For example, a particular module may have 2 hours of lectures in the week, the 1st on Monday at 10am and the 2nd on Thursday at 5pm, with a tutorial on Wednesday at 2pm. Therefore, in order to ensure that this is the programme for you, you should be aware that you will need to be very flexible in terms of availability to attend lectures.
AMOUNT OF TIME REQUIRED TO COMPLETE THE DEGREE
The amount of time it takes to complete the degree varies from student to student, depending on the credit workload* (most modules in the university are worth 5 credits). For example, a 45-credit workload each academic year means that 180 credits (the credit requirement to complete the degree) should be accumulated after a four-year period.
