Visiting, Exchange students

Selecting Psychology modules

Your Home University may provide you with a learning agreement or a list of required modules you must register for while you are studying here at Warwick. If you have been provided with either of the above mentioned then please email this to psintercalatedug@warwick.ac.uk ahead of your arrival so we can make sure that the modules are available for you.

All visiting students will still need to get permission from module convenors before registering for modules, as depending on your prior knowledge, sometimes there may be extra reading that you will be recommended, or more challenging areas of the module to highlight.

Once you have confirmation from the module convener, please complete the on-line form to select your modules along with approval from the module convenor Module Registration form to indicate your modules to us. Your approved modules will be added on the University registration system by the programmes office.

For outside option Modules you need to have approval from the home department running the module making sure that the option is available to visiting students and that you are able to complete all of the module components while you are her at Warwick. some external departments have their own registration system so you will need to register with the external department and this module will also be added to your Warwick Registration system.

Please consult timetables carefully to ensure that there are no clashes with lectures and seminars especially if you are taking modules from all years.
