Option Courses

Book Wheel

Alongside the core courses, students take two Option Courses, one in each semester. At least one of these option courses must be chosen from one of the following:

Semester 1

Semester 2

The other option course should preferably be chosen from this list, but it may be taken with the couse organiser's permission from other postgraduate courses available.

Option courses are taught in a weekly two-hour seminar for ten weeks in each semester. MSc option courses begin in week 2 of the Autumn Semester, but in week 1 of Spring Semester. Each option course requires the completion of a 4,000 word essay on a topic set by the course organiser.
