Courses are worth 10 or 20 credits, the number of credits can be viewed in the DPT. The DPT shows how many option courses you will need to take in Semester 1 and Semester 2 to make a total of 60 credits each semester. We will ask you to select more courses than you need, and will do our best and allocate courses as fairly as we can, however, where demand exceeds the spaces available, you might not get your top choices.Individual course timetables can be viewed by selecting the 'Timetable' link in the course descriptions available from the DPT. Please use the provisional draft MSc timetable available below to check which courses have timetable clashes. You will not be allocated to courses that have a timetable clash. You may contact the Course Organiser for more information about a particular course before making your selections. If you are allocated a course that you find is unsuitable, you may be able to change this up until the end of Week 2 in either semester, please contact your Student Adviser to do this.
