Programme information

Your first year

On BSc International Business, Finance and Economics and BSc Accounting you have a choice of semester 1 and/or semester 2 course units to make at the start of your academic year. You will receive an email about options prior to joining us in September in order for you to choose which optional course units you would like to take in your first year.

Your first and second semester examination entry will be based on the course unit choices we have listed for you at the end of the first two weeks of each semester.

Other Alliance MBS undergraduate programmes do not have a choice in the first year.

Your second and final year

Your examination entry will be based on the course unit choices we have listed for you at the end of the first two weeks of each semester. It is therefore in your own interest to check the course unit choices we have listed for you and confirm these by the due date.

If you have not finalised your choices by the deadline you risk having to take examinations for course units which you have not been attending.

At the beginning of each semester the Undergraduate Office will let you know the exact deadline date by which you have to confirm your options. We give you two full weeks at the start of each semester to confirm your options.

Please be assured that the University will act in the best interests of students and will take all reasonable and proportionate steps to mitigate the impact of the pandemic on teaching, learning and assessment.
