Before selecting your I-Explore module choices, please check which restrictions apply to the modules you are interested in and your specific degree programme.  

 

BPES modules

• The maximum number of BPES modules that you can pick is 4. 
• Do not choose a BPES module if you are planning to switch to a 'with management' degree. Due to the overlap with core content, you will not be eligible to enrol onto a 'with management' degree if you take a BPES module.
• Many of the BPES modules have exams. Before you choose a BPES module please ensure you will be available during BPES examination week. Students completing a work placement as part of their degree or are undertaking an internship in the summer term should not choose a spring term BPES module if they are likely to be abroad when the exam takes place. Examinations cannot be rescheduled to accommodate specific students’ availability.
• Students on programmes with a BPES elective should not choose the same module for I-Explore as they have chosen as their elective/ optional module. 

Language modules

• Languages modules can only be selected as a first or second choice preference.
• Languages modules in I-Explore start at Level 2. To be eligible for a Level 2 language module, you need to have achieved a GCSE (or equivalent) in the language. Eligibility criteria for the I-Explore language modules are noted on the Horizons webpages.
• Language modules are not intended for native or near-native speakers.
• Students may only pick from the language modules offered to their year group.
• If you are on a degree programme with a year abroad and need to increase your proficiency in a foreign language, please answer 'yes' to the year abroad question in the enrolment system. You will find that your I-Explore module choice is then restricted to one of the relevant language modules. You will also then be added to the relevant year abroad specific class.
