Changes to the  UMS and Academic Year

Plans are afoot to make some significant changes to the undergraduate modular scheme (this is all undergraduate modules apart from those aligned to health or education). Some of the proposed changes include reducing the number of joint combinations available, a shorter Christmas break in order to start Semester 2 lectures earlier and having longer 30 credit modules. These changes will be implemented in 2013 so are likely to be of particular interest to current first-year students, who will be directly affected, but all students are likely to have a view on how these changes might impact on the whole student experience.
