There are two delivery methods for this course which are both part-time. You can study this course by combining some attendance with studying online. During any one term, you will study one unit by attending one evening each week and one unit online. Please note that these units run concurrently, meaning you will be studying two units at the same time.

Alternatively you can study this course totally online via the internet. You can learn wherever you are as long as you have an internet connection. This option is ideal for those who live or work some distance from Bournemouth, Forces personnel stationed overseas and international students who are unable or do not want to attend the university in person. You will be part of an online community, interacting with fellow students and the academic team using web based communication tools. For the online course, you will study one unit at a time.
