Notes
The University of Glamorgan offers students a
flexible range of options in selecting their degree courses: Single
Honours Degrees; Joint Honours Degrees; Major/Minor Honours Degrees;
Multidiscipline Scheme, Foundation Year (FY)Programmes, Foundation
Degrees (FD) and Higher National Diplomas (HND).
The
subjects available for single honours degree courses are set out below,
under the relevant subject areas. Details of Joint Degrees, Major/Minor
Degrees and the Multidiscipline Scheme are included after the list of
subject areas.
Joint Honours degrees are generally those where two
or three subjects are linked by 'and'. Such degrees are for applicants
who wish to study two or three subject areas in an equally-weighted
combination. Some of the subject areas available for single honours
degrees are also available for combining as joint or major/minor
degrees. Other subjects are available only as part of a joint honours
or major/minor combination.
Major/Minor Honours Degrees are those
where two subjects are linked by 'with'. Such degrees are for those
wishing to study two subject areas with a greater emphasis on one (the
major) than the other (the minor).
Common combinations for Joint
and Major/Minor degrees have been pre-coded and these awards are listed
under Joint Degree Awards.
The Multidiscipline Scheme is for
applicants who wish to delay their choice of single, joint or combined
honours until the end of the first year or for applicants who wish to
combine three or more subject areas to honours degree level. The
subjects which may be selected for this award are listed under the
heading Multidiscipline Scheme.
The University of Glamorgan also offers the following courses:
-
Foundation Year Programmes. In these programmes, the usual three-year
degree courses are preceded by an additional foundation year which is
intended for those students who may not have the usual entry
requirements to begin immediately on a three-year degree course.
-
Foundation Degrees. These are two-year degree courses with an integral
programme of work-based learning. Successful students qualify for a
Foundation Degree (FD) and can progress to the final stages of an
honours degree.
- Higher National Diplomas (HNDs).
