NB. Please note the critical LLB transitional arrangements as stated in the Curriculums : College of Law brochure

25

LLB- transitional arrangements

•Students who have passed both ILW1014 and ILW1025 retain credit for these modules and may not register for ILW1501. Students who have passed only one of ILW1014 or ILW1025 retain credit for the module passed and must register for FAC1503 and not for ILW1501.

•Students who have passed EVI1024 or EVI302B retain credit and may not register for EVI3702.

•Students who have passed EVI2016 retain credit for that module and must not register for EVI3702.

•Students who have passed CRW101U retain credit for that module and must not register for CRW2601 or EUP1501.

26

LLB -transitional arrangements•Students who have passed MRL302N retain credit for that module and must not register for MRL4801.

•The LLB degree comprises FORTY MODULES which include thirty five (35) compulsory and five (5) elective modules. Some curriculum changes came into operation in 2008 and 2010. New compulsory modules were included in the curriculum, namely SJD1501, FAC1503, PVL3704 and LJU4802. Students who have already progressed quite far with their curriculum may find that this means that they have to do more than thirty five compulsory modules. Therefore they will have to do fewer than 5 electives, because only 40 modules are required to complete the qualification. Credits will be given for all modules already passed (e.g. credit will be given for both IND201V and IND202W which have now been replaced by IND2601).•Students who have passed EUP1501 or CRW101U need not register for SJD1501.
