Modules and Reading Clubs
All Research Students are required to take at least two modules during their first year. Modules can be chosen from the list of approved Part IIB modules, modules from fourth year courses in other Departments or certain MPhil Courses. One reading club can be taken in place of one module. The courses should be chosen in consultation with your supervisor within the first four weeks of your course.
Cambridge MEng graduates can apply to be exempt from one module subject to your supervisors approval. Applications should be sent, via email, to the Graduate Studies Office within two weeks of the start of your course.
Students who have an MPhil from the Department of Engineering or have taken the MRes in Photonics Systems Development can apply for exemption from two modules.
No other exemptions will be considered.
Students are required to register their examination choices on the local COMET system. An automated email message will be sent to all students at the start of the term with instructions on how to do this.
The module results are part of the First Year Assessment Process. A pass mark of at least 50% is required.
