ÌÇÐÄVlog

Optional modules available for third and final year students

Limitations

Please note the following limitations when choosing optional modules:

• You should not take Evidence, Company Law or Family Law if you have already covered these modules in Malaysia.
• Final year entrants cannot realistically take Clinical Legal Education due to the time constraints of finding a placement.
• Law Clinic modules have limited places.

You can always speak to your personal tutor when you arrive if you have any questions about your course.

Once your offer has turned unconditional and you're holding ÌÇÐÄVlog as your firm choice, you can enrol for optional modules. You can do this via the online system when it opens. When you log in, you will see listed the options personally available to you for your course and year of study.

When making your option choices you should consider:

• what areas of law you most enjoy studying
• what options are available to you in your current year of study and what will be available to you in future years (if applicable)
• how a module is assessed (i.e. exam or coursework)
• when the assessment takes place (e.g. you may not wish to pick four modules with coursework due at the same time)

Please note that we cannot guarantee that every combination of options is possible and you cannot take the same module option twice.

Due to the number of options we offer, and the inherent restrictions of the weekly timetable, it is impossible for us to ensure that no two options clash with each other. It is, unfortunately, possible, therefore, that you will need to amend your initial preferences once the timetable for the coming year has been confirmed. For this reason, please select your choices on  as early as possible.

You can download our handbook for more information on how to choose your modules.

In any academic year you should be taking modules totalling 120 credits for the year. Please make sure when choosing your options that you have made sufficient choices to achieve this total. Generally, 30 Credit modules run for a full year and 15 Credit modules run for one term.

It is important to ensure that you select your options so as to give you an even workload throughout the academic year. You should be taking four modules in each term. Do not select more modules in one term than another. Doing so will leave you with a heavy workload in one term which may impact detrimentally on your academic performance.

Should you change your mind, allowing for module availability, it is possible to change your options until the start of the Autumn Term. You will also have an opportunity to change your Spring Term choices at the start of Spring Term. The exact dates will be published on the Enrol website.

The School makes every effort to ensure that optional modules are available in as many combinations as possible, but sometimes timetabling constraints mean that certain options will clash with other options. If this is the case, you will have to select options that do not clash. The timetables are usually released by mid-September, at which time you can still select different options.

While the information contained in this booklet is believed to be correct at the time it was compiled (June 2020), and is believed to contain an accurate description of the modules planned for the academic year 2020-21, the School of Law reserves the right to update, modify or even withdraw specific modules or change staffing arrangements or methods of assessments where academic developments or unexpected contingencies render such action necessary.
