You'll notice that modules are sometimes given a level; these are intended to indicate the amount of prerequisite knowledge required for the modules.
Which module level is right for me?
- Level 1 (FHEQ 4) modules are usually introductory and would be appropriate as an option outside your main subject area, to broaden your scope.
- Levels 2 and 3 (FHEQ 5 and 6) will normally require prior study.
- Level 4 (FHEQ 7) modules are the most advanced on offer.
- Core modules may be compulsory, for example the Core modules for International Relations and Political Science, but they do not usually require any prerequisite knowledge.
