Degree
Both CU London campuses offer a range of vocational courses taught in a progressive and flexible way that is tailored to meet students’ needs.
A full-time degree programme takes three years to complete; each academic year is broken down into separate qualifications, meaning if your situation changes at any point after your first year of study and you cannot complete the course, you’ll still leave with a qualification. Year one of the programme is a HNC, year two a HND and the third year is a full degree.
Learning Model
Our degrees require you to study four blocks per year. Students will only study one module per block over the course of six weeks.
Unlike traditional institutions, there are no end of year exams. Assessment methods could include coursework, essays, practical or project work, group work, presentations and tests. The Coventry University Group assessment strategy ensures that our courses are fairly assessed and allows us to monitor student progression towards the student achieving the intended learning outcomes.
The contact hours may be made up of a combination of face-to-face teaching, individual and group tutorials, and online classes and tutorials. Our courses are taught by academics and industry professionals.
Please refer to your specific course webpage to review how your course will be assessed and the number of contact hours you will receive each week.
