Teaching & Modules

Teaching methods - what to expect

Teaching is conducted through a combination of methods including lectures, problem sheets, tutorials, projects, practical laboratory sessions, workshops, and group-based activities. Typically, one credit equates to 10 hours of work, e.g. 150 hours work for a 15-credit module. These hours cover every aspect of the module, including independent study.
