Your Modules

Module Registration

This is the mechanism by which the modules you will be studying are attached to your Student Record. Once the modules are attached you will be able to view your module profile in ICON (your online student record).

Module Registration - Full Time Students

If you are a full-time student you will view your modules for the next Academic Year during online registration.

Some courses are fully prescribed and students on these courses must follow a full programme of set modules during their study, examples of such courses would be Occupational Therapy and Radiography.

Other courses have an element of choice and you will be able to choose elective modules in addition to viewing your compulsory modules when you undertake registration for the next Academic Year, via ICON. Detailed instructions of the elective module combinations you can take or elective modules you cannot take together will all be provided during this section of registration. Where this option is available, there is a requirement for you complete a fixed amount of academic credits for your elective modules. 

Module Registration - Part-time Students - Health Courses

Part-time students need to complete a Health Module Registration Form. Once completed, students need to return the form to healthmodules@cumbria.ac.uk. 

Withdrawing from your part-time health module

If you are a part-time health student and you wish to withdraw from a module rather than withdrawing from the course, you need to complete a Health Module Withdrawal Form. Once completed, you need to return the form to healthmodules@cumbria.ac.uk.

Please be aware that if you withdraw from a module, you may be liable to pay fees for this module. You need to contact Finance to see if you will be liable to pay for all or part of a withdrawn module.

Module Registration - Part-time Students (non-health-related courses)

Part-time students need to complete a Part Time Module Registration Form. Once completed, you need to return the form to their Programme Administration Office.

Withdrawing from your part-time module

If you are a part-time student and you wish to withdraw from a module rather than withdrawing from your entire course, you need to complete a Part Time Module Withdrawal Form. Once completed, you need to return the form to their Programme Administration office.

Please be aware that if you withdraw from a module, you may be liable to pay fees for this module.  You need to contact Finance to see if you will be liable to pay for all or part of the module.

Module Registration – International Students

International students who are studying on Erasmus or Exchange programmes (rather than those who are following standard courses) will be provided with information relating to their module choices during their application process. 

If you are on an Erasmus or Exchange programme you will then be asked to complete an International Student Module Registration Form during your Induction week. You need to ensure that all the modules you choose start and finish during the period of your exchange and also that you select modules with a total credit value which is required under your learning agreement.  

If you then need to make changes to any of your module selections after starting on your course you will need to complete a Module Change Form. Please see the sections below on changing your modules. 

You may also have to complete a further Erasmus form which provides details of the changes to your module selections. (This depends on your home country and home university, not all students need to complete an Erasmus amendment form). Your Programme Administration office will sign and stamp this for you. If you do change modules you need to ensure that you are still taking the same amount of total credit which is required under your Erasmus, Study Abroad or Exchange agreement.
