What are the minimum and maximum workloads?
The minimum workload is 15 MCs worth of modules per semester. Students may read less than 15MCs in the graduating semester. The recommended workload is 20 MCs of modules per semester; this is so that students will not be overly taxed in any particular semester and they will be able to complete their degree in the given time. Depending on your CAP, the maximum allowable workload ranges from 26 to 32 MCs per semester. Permission from the Science Dean’s Office will be required if you want to read beyond the maximum allowable workload. The maximum workload of newly matriculated students is 26 MC. Permission from the Science Dean’s Office is also required to read beyond the maximum allowable workload as newly matriculated students have no CAP.
