Syllabus

2020-2021. To complete the MSc students must undertake all core modules in the Autumn Term and four* further modules, from those running, in the Spring Term. * Students undertaking the MSc with Business Management take six Transport modules in total: Four in the autumn term and two in the spring term.

2021-2022. The MSc in Transport with Business Management is suspended for entry. 

Furthermore, four designated career-oriented pathways are offered to students in the selection of their spring term elective modules. These pathways are provided for guidance only, and students may, if they wish, select freely from the modules on offer.
Module incompatibilities are listed within the individual module descriptors.  

Not all modules run in each year, minimum registration for each module is normally 12 students. Designated pathways are contingent on the relevant modules running.
