Undergraduate/bachelors/1st cycle students should view our online module lists to build a programme of study. Each module has a link to a descriptor document which will tell you the content of the module, assessment pattern and number of credits.
At SHU, years of study are referred to in the following way:
- L4 or Level 4 = 1st year
- L5 or Level 5 = 2nd year
- L6 or Level 6 = 3rd year
- L7 or Level 7 = postgraduate/masters/2nd cycle
When selecting modules, please ensure that you choose modules that are running in the period that you will be studying at Sheffield Hallam University. For example:
If you are joining us in Semester 1 (autumn/winter, September – January) you will need to choose modules from this list.
If you are joining us in Semester 2 (spring/summer, January – May) you will need to choose modules from this list.
If you are coming for the full academic year (September – May) you can choose any combination of modules from the above lists as long as you do not exceed the maximum number of credits, and study an equal number of credits per semester.
