Students on a part-time programme will need to commit at least one day a week to attending taught modules. This may be a whole day or could be two or three half-days. Having slight flexibility may be beneficial and will increase your module choice. Students also need to set aside around 15 hours a week for independent studies such as reading, coursework, and exam preparation.
