TR063- Fresher Module Choices

This page outlines the module choices that current TR063 Physical Sciences students need to make in order to be eligible to apply for the Nanoscience Moderatorship in their third year.

Assuming that you have taken and passed the required modules, you will apply for the Nanoscience Moderatorship at the end of Semester 2 in your second year.

Places on the Nanoscience Moderatorship

There are a total of 26 places available on the Nanoscience Moderatorship. Of these, 10 places are reserved for students entering from TR061 Chemical Sciences and 10 places are reserved for students entering from TR063 Physical Sciences.

The remaining 6 places are available to eligible students from either TR061 or TR063 and are allocated on the basis of academic performance.

In recent years, places have remained available after the reassessment period. Students who have taken reassessment examinations may therefore still be eligible for a place on the Nanoscience Moderatorship.

 

First Year Choices (Junior Fresh)

As a TR063 Physical Sciences student, the core and optional modules that you must take in your first year to remain eligible to apply for the Nanoscience Moderatorship are summarised below.

Junior Freshman requirements for Nanoscience: 40 ECTS core plus 20 ECTS options. S1: PYU11P10, MAU11S01 and CHU11101 (10 ECTS each). S2: PYU11P20, MAU11S02 and CHU11102 (10 ECTS each). CHU modules are choices within TR063.

In first year, Mathematics and Physics are core subjects for TR063 students. If you are considering Nanoscience, you must also ensure that you take the required Chemistry modules shown above.

Note: Following this module pathway allows you subsequently to apply for Physics or in Physics and Astrophysics or Nanoscience.

 

Second Year Choices (Senior Fresh)

As a TR063 Physical Sciences student, the core and optional modules that you must take in your second year to remain eligible to apply for the Nanoscience Moderatorship are summarised below.

Senior Freshman requirements for Nanoscience: 40 ECTS core plus 20 ECTS options. S1: PYU22P10 and CHU22201 (10 ECTS each); MAU22S01 and MAU22S03 (5 ECTS each). S2: PYU22P20 and CHU22202 (10 ECTS each); PIU22992 and MAU22S02 (5 ECTS each). CHU modules are choices within TR063.

Note: Following this module pathway allows you subsequently to apply for Physics or in Physics and Astrophysics or Nanoscience.
