Notes:

  1. Additional language modules read, over and above the maximum number stated above, cannot be used to fulfil EU major requirements.
  2. Students who have prior knowledge of French or German will be allowed to enrol for higher level language modules. Placement tests will determine the appropriate starting level for such students. Exemptions of 4 or 8 MCs will be awarded to students who begin the language module at LAF4202/LAG4202 or LAF4203/ LAG4203 respectively.
  3. Students who have qualified to read LAF/LAG4202 French/German 6 OR LAF/LAG4203 French/German Studies 1 and have received credit exemptions, are required to read level-4000 EU non-language module(s).
  4. To declare an Honours track, students must have completed 110 MCs, including 60 MCs in the Major, with a CAP of 3.5 and above.
  5. To qualify for Honours Thesis/Project (15 MCs), students must be on the Honours track.

In addition, EU Honours students are required to comply with Honours Thesis requirements of the supervising department.
  6. Students may also read a level-4000 Independent Studies Module (5 MCs). The level-4000 ISM carries a prerequisite of 100 MC completed, including 60 MC in the Major, with a minimum CAP of 3.5. It precludes the Honours Thesis/Project.
