BA Arts (Joint Hons)

BA Arts Joint Honours
BA Arts (International) Joint Honours 

The BA Arts Joint Hons programme is a 180-credit undergraduate programme over 3 Stages and the BA Arts (International) Joint Hons programme is a 240-credit undergraduate programme over 4 Stages.  Each Stage is worth 60 credits. You are pre-registered to the two subjects you chose on your CAO Application Form and when you go to register on SISWeb you may see that you are already registered to the core modules for these two subjects.  A key feature of this programme is the opportunity to choose a third, and possibly a fourth subject, and it is important to fully understand the need to make a clear and informed decision on what other subjects you wish to choose.

As with the other BA degrees, you are expected to take 60 credits over the two trimesters of each academic session. You cannot attempt more than 40 credits in a single trimester.  Repeats and Resits will count towards your workload and if you are taking either remediation route during your studies, it is important to seek academic advice from your School and College Office if you find you have too many modules to be completed overall.
