To pass a Postgraduate Programme a student must achieve the total amount of credit at the specified level for the Award, as set out in the Programme Specification. Credit will be achieved through passing the required assessments or by exemption through Recognition of Prior Learning.
Some Postgraduate Programmes contain more than one block of study separated by progression points at which certain requirements have to be met. Where this is the case the requirements will be detailed in the Programme Specification.
At the end of the Programme, once all the requirements of the Programme have been met, an Assessment Board will consider the appropriate Award to be made.
