choosingDegree Programme requirements

The requirements for each Degree Programme are laid out in a table at the below links. The table is designed to enable you to check which units are mandatory for your Degree Programme and which are recommended optional units. You may be able to take other units but you must be able to fit them into your timetable and you should talk to your Programme Director or Personal Advisor about this.

More detailed information on your Degree Programme structure for each level of study can be found on the Faculty intranet under the heading ‘academic advisement’ – https://www.intranet.ls.manchester.ac.uk/education/cm/academicadvisement.aspx

Academic Advisement is the term used in Campus Solutions for the way in which Degree Programmes are structured, e.g. which course units students take in each academic year, which of those units are mandatory, and which units may be selected as options. By following the above link you will be able to access the academic advisement documents for your Degree Programme. These sheets are used at registration for your Programme Director to agree your choice of units with you.

The Data Handling unit BIOL20701 and Critical Writing unit BIOL21701 are part of the tutorial unit.

BIOL20552    Tropical Ecology & Conservation (Summer vacation)
