Section 7 - Programmes and modules of study

7.2 Change of Programmes and Module Selection

Change of Programmes

The programme of study you enrol on when you start Queen Mary is the same as the course for which QM accepted you. Full details of all EECS programmes can be found at https://intranet.eecs.qmul.ac.uk/admin/programmes   These descriptors specify the modules which have been programmed in the Student Information System (SIS) and you must take.

Please note we do not permit any first year change of programme requests. This policy has been set and approved by the School Senior Management Team and our Director of Recruitment and Admissions

If you would like to discuss adding IE to your programme of study after your first year of study please email eecsprogadm@qmul.ac.uk directly.

If the new programme of study is run by another department, you will also be referred to the designated member of staff in the department responsible for the new programme. If the change is approved by all departments involved, a College Change of Programme of Study form are available from the Academic Registry website at https://www.arcs.qmul.ac.uk/students/study/changing-programme/index.html must be completed and signed by a member of the Teaching Services Team and the designated member of staff from any other department involved. The student may be assigned a new tutor/Adviser as a result of the change.

Module Selection

Module registration is handled online by the QMUL Student Information System (SIS). You should choose or confirm your modules for the whole academic year before or during the enrolment period at the start on Semester A. You will have the opportunity to change the choices you made for Semester B at the start on the new term in January.

To register for your modules you will need to login to MySIS http://mysis.qmul.ac.uk using your QMUL computer login details and select ‘Module Registration’ from the menu on the left.  Any core or compulsory modules will already be preselected and you will not be able to change them. Elective modules can be selected from the lists.

Once you have made your module selection and are happy with your choices you should click the ‘Submit Selections’ button. This is an important step and if it is not followed through your module choices will not go through the system. Your module selections will then be available to the Teaching Services Team.

It is essential that you check your QMUL email daily and respond quickly if any of your modules registrations are rejected. Please note that it is your responsibility to ensure that there are no timetable clashes for the modules you have selected. Module registration must be completed within the first 2 weeks of teaching.

We do have some modules that have limited spaces and priority will be given to students who are required to take these as part of their recommended programme.

It is possible for you to modify your choices up until the second week of each semester. To do so you will need to speak to a member of the Teaching Services Team and ask them to reject your selection.


Can I take a module from another University of London (UoL) college?

Undergradate students can take a module at another UoL college such as Kings College London, University College London, London School of Economics and the School of Oriental and African Studies.

To register for one of these modules you will need to contact Registry and complete the appropriate form and get approval from your academic School or Institute, as well as approval from the other college.
