The following pages set out the compulsory and option elements for each programme. Options are chosen in consultation with the student's personal tutor at the start of the year. Changes must be agreed with the Personal Tutor no later than 2 weeks after the start of the appropriate semester. You are also required to enter your options on the student system, by the end of the second teaching week. Please ensure that these are the same as those you have agreed with your personal tutor. Variations involving the compulsory elements of a programme are only allowed in exceptional circumstances and must be agreed with the Programme Director (including the Programme Director for Physics if it concerns a core Physics course).
