Masters Degrees

Masters programmes have two semesters of taught modules and one semester dedicated to the dissertation. These are supported by a range of resources including notes, links, discussions and podcasts.

Syllabus

The autumn and spring semesters offer a number of compulsory and optional modules.You will receive feedback at regular intervals during modules to help with your learning. You will also receive full details of your performance with additional feedback from your programme director at the end of the autumn and spring semesters. Further details can be found in the programme handbook.
