Language competency levels are listed as a guide, courses may vary based on ability and are
subject to diagnostic testing.
Mode B students undertake their residence abroad in the 2nd half session of level 3.
Candidates seeking entry to the Junior Honours programme must have accumulated, by award or
recognition, or been exempted from, at least 240 credit points at levels 1 and 2, including the
prescribed courses required to enter programme year 3.
** Level 2 students opting to take the combination FR2513 and FR2510 should be aware the credit
weighting will be 45 credits in the first half session and 75 credits in the second half session as
opposed to the standard 60/60. This will result in a heavier workload in the second half session.
