GENERAL INFORMATION ON MODULE REGISTRATION

Timeline of making your module selection

• The module registration task will open in MySIS on Monday 17 March 2025.
• Students have until Monday 14 April 2025 to submit their selection.
• The STA Education team will process module selections in early May.

Before submitting your selections on MySIS:

• Read the relevant Programme Requirements - listed in the relevant section below - as it includes details on compulsory and elective modules.

• Consult the QM Module Directory  to check which modules will be running in 2025-26 and to obtain a rough idea of the subject areas (for reference only). As the Module Directory is only available from 17 March, we have created a list of modules we are planning to run in 2025/26 - available here.

• Attend the Module Fair on Wednesday 26 March 2025. Details, including the schedule will be shared nearer the time.

• Discuss your module selection with your Advisor (recommended).

Things to consider:

• Please take your time when making module selections to check all the resources and guidance made available to you, while keeping in mind the deadline set to complete your module registration or request module changes.

• All students are required to take 120 credits in an academic year, it is not possible to take less or more credits.
  

• Please note that if you’ve already taken a module with the exact same name but at a different level or with a different code, you will not be able to take it again.

• Should you wish to take modules from outside of STA, please be aware that many modules that appear in the selection pot on MySIS will not be suitable for you and will not be approved by the School offering the module.

How To Submit:

• Use the Step-by-Step Guidance with Screenshots  prepared by Student Records.
  

• If you cannot access the Module Registration task in MySIS or you receive an error message when attempting to submit your choices in MySIS, please contact the STA Education Team (Email: sta-education@qmul.ac.uk and we will look into the issue for you ASAP.

• Once you submit your main selection of modules, you will be required to submit reserve choices and you MUST choose these modules within STA unless you are on a joint-honours programme with a subject outside of STA. Please consider those carefully and ensure they are modules you would be happy to take and cover both Semesters.
  

• After you submit your selections, your module registration status will change to ENT (Entered) and you will not be able to amend them until we either approve (status CON) or reject (status REJ) the whole submission. If you change your mind while your status is still ENT, email sta-education@qmul.ac.uk and we will reject your submission so you can resubmit. 

• Once your initial module registration has been completed, you will have further opportunities to change your optional modules in September (depending on availability).
  

What happens next:

• Following your submission, the STA Education Team will check that ALL of your module choices meet your Programme Requirements and pre-requisites, and make any necessary substitutions.
  

• We will make every effort to allocate you to your first-choice modules or a comparable reserve choice, but if we are unable to place you on either, we will have to allocate you to any available STA module that meets your programme requirements.

• Common reasons for rejection include not meeting pre-requisites, having previously taken the same module, rejection of modules by other Schools, semester imbalance,  availability.

• Please note that availability of modules can change at any time and the School reserves the right to withdraw a module even if your module registration has previously been approved. 

• If a module is oversubscribed, priority will be given to students on the relevant degree programme.
  

If you have any questions about the module registration process, please contact your Academic Advisor, or contact the STA Education Team (Email: sta-education@qmul.ac.uk).
