1.18
A student who receives credit for law-related FHEQ Level 7 or equivalent level courses previously passed at a
College or Institute of the University of London will be informed whether the credits awarded can contribute
towards a particular specialisation.
A FHEQ Level 7 course would usually be the equivalent of a Masters level programme.
1.19
A student will not be permitted to change their choice of specialisation once the specialisation has been
requested and the award given.
1.20
A student who fails to indicate the title of their chosen specialisation(s), or who is awarded the Postgraduate
Certificate in Laws or Postgraduate Diploma in Laws automatically, will receive the award(s) without
specialisation.
1.21
A student who is awarded an award without specialisation, will not be permitted to request a specialisation at
a later date.
1.22
Not more than one specialisation may be named on the final certificate for any award. Different
specialisations, however, may appear on each of the three possible awards.
Learning materials and the eCampus
1.23
Learning materials for new courses are published and made available to students throughout the year as they
become available.
Students are advised, however, not to sit examinations for any sections if they have had access to the
materials for less than six months.
1.24
An indication of the materials that are new or updated each year is given in the eCampus. It is a student’s
responsibility to ensure that they have up-to-date materials for the modules they are studying each year.
1.25
A student registered for the Postgraduate Laws programme will have access to the eCampus. During
participation in the eCampus and during all other online activities, students must observe the eCampus rules
of conduct for online behaviour given in the Student handbook.
Transfer to the LLM, Postgraduate Diploma or Postgraduate Certificate
1.26
Previously, International Programmes Students registered for the LLM (Old Regulations) were permitted to
transfer their registration to, or enrol for, the LLM, Postgraduate Diploma in Laws or Postgraduate Certificate
in Laws, under certain provisions. All registrations for the LLM (Old Regulations) have now expired.
