Study at the OU - Where have all modules gone?

Hi all,

I'm currently working towards the computing and IT degree B62. When I first decided to study with the OU, I could look at the degree on their website and see a full breakdown i.e. What modules I could choose from, how many points from each level was needed etc etc.
I've been trying to plan next years study, but all of the wonderful information I mentioned above has gone!?? :confused:

Maybe I'm being a bit stupid and just not finding it, but if anyone could offer some help or a link it would be greatly appreciated! :smile:

Here's a link so you know what web page I'm referring to:
http://www3.open.ac.uk/study/undergraduate/qualification/b62.htm

Also, I'd just like to add that I have found the page with all the IT modules, but this doesn't include what is specifically needed for my degree and doesn't have all the possible modules for the degree. Thanks in advance :smile:

They're preparing to launch the 2012/13 department prospectuses and so they've taken down the webpages to revise them.

Cheers mate :smile:

I did find that page, but unfortunately it's just a list of the modules and not degree specific :frown:

Thanks all the same though dude :smile:

You my dear.... are a star!!! :biggrin:

Thanks a lot, just what I was looking for! I know it won't be valid when they launch the new prospectus, but it helps me get my head round things. Thank you again :smile:

Someone neg repped me for my correct answer! :biggrin:

Anyway... I reckon we'll have to be reserving places quickly for many courses starting October, especially the core L1's and L2's.

My thoughts exactly, I'm hoping to register within the next couple weeks... though I do need to wait for the new prospectus. Any idea roughly when it comes out?

And re: someone negging you for your answer... Confused :confused:

Well here, have some pos to make up for it.

I once got negged for a post I'd written three years earlier in which I said it was possible to buy pots and pans in places like Argos, Poundstretcher, and charity shops! :biggrin:

All they say is early 2012. I suppose they have to list two sets of fees now - one rate for people like us and another for the people joining in the Autumn. Also we'll see if they'll continue to add a premium with the new fees for some of the business and law models. The fees could be very controversial.

Oh. Where are you looking? It's the degree pages that we're looking at. Your current BA/BSc Health and Social Care degree page doesn't give any guidance to the modules that you should take to complete the degree.

If you access it through StudentHome you should see the old page, for current students. The pages viewable through the main website are/will be aimed at new students from 2012 I believe. Go to StudentHome, then click on your degree title in the 'Qualifications' section, then at the top of the page click 'See description'. :smile:
