11.3 Free Choice modules Students can select a Free Choice module, as outlined above, at an appropriate Level from a number of modules from any course, Department or School across the University. In addition, the University offers languages modules via Polylang, a University-wide scheme aimed at providing wider access to languages for all undergraduate students. Further details of the Polylang Scheme are included in Essential Westminster 2006/07. Some modules are not available as Free Choice modules. Timetabling constraints, pre-requisites and limited availability of places may further restrict choice. 11.4 Degree classification The University normally calculates the class of degree in accordance with the following mark and credit ranges: First: Upper Second: Lower Second: An average of 70% or above in the best 105 credits at Credit Level 6, with an average of 60% or above in the next best 105 credits at Credit Levels 5 and 6. An average of 60% or above in the best 105 credits at Credit Level 6, with an average of 50% or above in the next best 105 credits at Credit Levels 5 and 6. An average of 50% or above in the best 105 credits at Credit Level 6, with an average of 40% or above in the next best 105 credits at Credit Levels 5 and 6. Third: An average of 40% or above in the best 210 credits at Credit Levels 5 and 6. The University’s Student Records System automatically calculates the recommended Degree classification. The recommended Degree classification then forms part of the Conferment Board’s report. However, the final Degree classification agreed through the assessment process is a matter of academic judgement. 11.5 Intermediate awards Students who are unable or do not wish to complete the BSc (Hons) Photographic Scienc Degree may be eligible to claim an intermediate award as described below. If a student plans (for whatever reason) to leave the course for which they are registered and so wants to claim an intermediate award, they must notify the relevant Campus Office in writing. The University will then confer any intermediate award at the next available opportunity. A student shall not normally be allowed to claim more than one award within the same undergraduate course scheme. 11.5.1 BSc Photography and Digital Imaging To qualify for the award of an unclassified Degree, a student must have: a. taken modules worth at least 300 credits at Credit Level 4 or above, including modules worth at least 180 credits at Credit Levels 5 and 6, of which at least 60 credits are at Credit Level 6; b. passed modules worth at least 270 credits at Credit Level 4 or above, including 165 credits at Credit Levels 5 and 6, of which at least 60 credits must be at Level 6; The University may award a Degree with distinction to a student whose marks average at least 60% across the best 150 credits passed at Credit Levels 5 and 6.
