What are modules?

A module is a class or course, which is one small part of a degree course. Full time undergraduate students at London Metropolitan University take 4 modules each semester.

One module is usually worth 15 London Met credits = 3 US credit hours = 7.5 ECTS credits.

Are there any module restrictions?

If your home university agrees credit transfer and you meet the pre-requisites for a module, then you can take most modules which are on offer to undergraduate students. However, there are some which are:

Off limits

These are classes which are based around placements or are part of an accredited degree and are therefore not open to Study Abroad students:

Architecture (AD)	Sports Therapy (SP)
Civil Aviation (CA)	Social Work (SW)
Nutrition (NF)	Early Years Teaching (TE)

PG classes not available to undergraduate students. Module code will be **P***
Foundation classes are not available. Module code will be ***X** or ***F**
