Approved Programme

An Approved Programme is a Programme of Study, the successful completion of which leads to an Institute Award. The award is made when the required number of credits has been successfully accumulated, at appropriate levels, from approved modules. The programme outcomes, curriculum and credit requirements of a programme are formally outlined in a programme specification presented in a Programme Descriptor as required by the Institute and approved at a Programme Approval Process.


In relation to an approved programme, the provisions of the Programme
Descriptor are deemed to form part of the Regulations applying to the
programme.
