Regulations for the Honours Degree Programmes in

Chemistry and Sports Science

Chemistry and Information Technology

These Programme Regulations should be read in conjunction with the General Regulations for Undergraduate Awards (GRUA) and the relevant Module Specifications. Notice of change will be given by the Department responsible for the programme.

Structure
1. Administrative responsibility for the programme rests with the Department of Chemistry.
2. The duration of the programme is six semesters, or eight semesters if students undertake industrial training leading to the award of the Diploma in Industrial Studies, or an approved period of study abroad leading to a Diploma in Professional Studies, which occurs between Part B and Part C.

1.3 Chemistry modules weighted 60 and either Sports Science or Information Technology modules weighted 60 will be studied in each academic year.

1.4 Where 20 credit modules are taught over both semesters they have a nominal weight of 10 in each semester.

3. Assessment

3.1 Criteria for Progression and Degree Award

Candidates must achieve the minimum credit requirements set out in GRUA in order to progress through the programme and qualify for the award of the degree.

In addition, in order to gain credit for any chemistry module which contains a coursework/laboratory component, candidates must obtain at least 40% in the coursework/laboratory component of that module.

3.2 Relative Weighting of Parts of the Programmes for the purposes of

Final Degree Classification

Candidates' final degree classification will be determined on the basis of their performance in degree level Module Assessments in Parts B and C in accordance with the scheme set out in GRUA. The scores for each Part will be combined in the ratio Part B 40: Part C 60 to determine the final score.

3.3 Re-assessment

Provision will be made in accordance with GRUA for candidates who have the right of re-assessment in Part A, Part B or Part C of the programme to undergo re-assessment in the University's special assessment period.

These Regulations were made by the Associate Dean (Teaching) on behalf of the Faculty of Science in May 2005.
