Modules

*Programme modules listed are illustrative only and subject to change.


UK degrees are three years long whereas in China they are four, therefore we do accept students with certain qualifications directly into Year Two, which is the start of the main academic programme. Most students, however, enter into Year One, which provides you with a range of interesting modules, language classes and core skills for your degree.

Alone you cannot do much; however, great things can be accomplished if you successfully convey your vision and passion to a group of people that follow your leadership and become your future employees. This concept I learnt from my major, is solidifying my determination to develop an unforgettable future career.
