Your degree is made up of modules, these are classes which focus on a particular topic within your degree subject. Unless otherwise stated, all of your modules are core.

The majority of modules at Northumbria University London are worth 20, 40 or 60 credits. These credits go toward your final degree award. As a general rule, 1 UK credit equates to 10 hours of work.

Your degree programme may feature a 0 credit but compulsory module(s). These are designed to either:

  • Improve your English language skills
  • Improve your general academic skills
  • Prepare you for your dissertation, project or graduate life

You can view what modules are included in your programme on the course page.

Each module will feature different teaching methods. Generally, the core topics and subjects will be introduced and taught in lectures. Lectures typically have a larger number of students attending with a lecturer speaking.

The content of these lectures and surrounding reading are then discussed and debated in smaller and more interactive seminars.

Seminars are a more discussion oriented learning environment for more detailed exploration of issues covered in lectures. In seminars, you will engage in advanced study by exchanging information and holding discussions between you and your peers and you and your tutor.

Workshops provide an interactive learning environment, where you will integrate theory and practice. In workshops you will work on assigned tasks structured around solving real life problems.

Unscheduled independent learning aims to develop your ability for inquiry and critical evaluation by placing increased educational responsibility on you, aided by teaching staff. Independent learning is crucial at post-graduate level and vital for your career advancement.

Depending on what programme you are on, you may also be taught in tutorials or labs, where you will apply the course teachings in practical sessions.

To give you an idea of when teaching weeks will begin and end, as well as help plan your holidays, we have our term dates published for each academic year. Please refer to London Campus Calendar.
