Seminars are scheduled in the afternoons.

Both Honours & MA courses follow a modular format, with two modules per degree running over a twelve week semester, followed immediately by the relevant examinations.  This format has been chosen to make the degree modules compatible with other programmes in the Faculty of Human Sciences, and will allow for greater interchange in terms of the electives on offer.  Module credits can be earned by students determining their own points of entry and exit.  Short-term enrolment requires a minimum of one semester of full-time attendance for thirteen weeks a year. This will allow a student to earn two module credits per semester, working towards the completion of the degree.  Students, however, may exit the course at any time, and receive certification for those modules which are complete. 

Some modules may require internships, field work and research activity over and above the official University calendar.  This work is usually scheduled for the University vacations.  Students concerned should budget for, and schedule, such activities into their work.
