1999 Science Handbook - Single subject enrolments

Single subject enrolments

The prime teaching responsibility of the Faculty of Science is to students enrolled in a university degree, but the faculty will consider applications from persons to undertake single subjects additional to, or separate from, the BSc provided that (i) the applicant has not in the same year been excluded from undergraduate courses of the faculty; (ii) single-subject students be enrolled in quotaed subjects only if the quota has not been filled. Single subject enrolments in psychology are no longer available; they have been replaced by enrolments in the Graduate Diploma in Psychology - see entry in chapter 'Graduate studies by coursework'.
The head of department concerned, if satisfied that (i) the department has the requisite resources; (ii) the applicant has the background knowledge necessary to undertake the subject; and (iii) the applicant appears to have the necessary motivation to complete the subject, shall recommend admission of the applicant through the dean. In respect of an applicant who is a candidate for a science degree, an academic adviser's concurrence will also be required.
