Module summary

Extension of Knowledge modules allow you to broaden your academic experience by choosing modules that sit outside your core discipline. This opportunity allows you to explore subjects that align with your other interests or will help you to develop additional skills to enhance your degree pathway and employability prospects.

Please note there is no guarantee that all of these modules will be currently available and where a module is listed in both Autumn and Spring it may only be offered in one semester. Please click on the individual module code to check availability. If your programme allows you to choose 2 EoK modules they will appear in Evision as XK0000 and XK0002.
