Registering for External Modules
This page is being updated for module choices for 2026/27
Each department at Warwick has its own process and deadlines for students to register for their modules. It is important that you follow their process for each non-Law module you would like to apply for. Below we have collated information on most academic departments.
Have you considered studying a Business School module next year?
WBS would like to invite all students to attend our 26/27 module fair, taking place on Wednesday 11th March from 13:00 – 16:00. The fair is the perfect opportunity to learn more about WBS modules, speak directly to our academics, and find out how the application process works. The fair will also be attended by student ambassadors who will be able to share their own experiences of studying WBS modules.
The fair will take place in the main atrium of the WBS building on Wednesday 11thMarch, and we hope to see you there!
Information for students on WBS module application
WBS module applications take place earlier than most departments, with round 1 running from 11th March to 30th April. WBS modules are often very popular and have limited capacity, so to maximise their chance of securing a place on their desired module(s) we strongly advise students to apply with us in this round. Later rounds will take place over summer, and at the start of each teaching term.
As well as the module fair, students can access loads of information about our modules and the application process via our my.wbsModule Application Hub, which is currently being updated with 26/27 information ahead of the fair.
Students can log into my.wbs using the usual IT login details, they don’t need to create a new account.
Sociology do not hold a module fair. Students who are interested in Sociology modules should check this page for the modules available: https://warwick.ac.uk/fac/soc/sociology/current/undergraduate/modules/

If you are a joint honours with Sociology student, Sociology will email you with a link to their pre-registration page where you will be asked to indicate your choices for Sociology modules only.
