The majority of undergraduate exchange students are recommended to choose Level 2 modules.

Undergraduate exchange students can choose other UG level modules (Level 0, Level 1 and Level 3),
subject to having satisfied any prerequisite requirements, the enrollment quota and the approval of
their home university/school.

Postgraduate exchange students are recommended to choose Level 4 modules.

The normal credit load is 60 Nottingham credits per semester (minimum 50 credits and maximum 70
credits per semester). The full credit load for a whole academic year is 120 credits.

Please note that the module preferences entered below do not constitute pre-registration. There is no
guarantee that you will be able to take the modules based on your preferences due to
potential timetable clash.

A timetable clash is likely to occur when you choose modules across different schools and levels, for
example, a level 2 Business school exchange student chooses a level 3 International Communication
module). In the table below, you will be asked to specify whether or not a module is compulsory to your
degree program. If yes, we will prioritise your compulsory module while avoiding a timetable clash.

Module registration takes place on your arrival at UNNC. Within the first two academic teaching weeks,
you will be allowed to make further changes of your module choices upon the approval of your home
university/school.

For language modules please specify the language level (e.g. Spanish 2a). Students who choose
Mandarin module will be asked to do an online placement test before arrival in order to place you at a
suitable level of language module. For details, please contact Language Center via
Lc-enquiries@nottingham.edu.cn
