5. Programmes and modules of study

5.3. Core modules

This section applies only to students who started their degree programme in September 2022 or earlier.

Each degree programme includes a number of core modules. To check which modules are core for your degree, see the programme structure section.

If you are a single honours student on one of the following programmes, and you fail more than one core module, you will not be able to graduate with your intended degree title:

  • Economics
  • Economics and Finance
  • Economics and International Finance
  • Economics, Finance and Management
  • Finance

Instead you will be awarded an ‘Economic Studies’ degree, providing the other requirements for this award are met.

If you are a joint honours student on one of the following programmes, and you fail any core modules, you will not be able to graduate with your intended degree title and will be awarded the 'Economic Studies' version instead as listed below, providing the other requirements for this award are met:
