You can apply for ONE course from those advertised in the catalogue. The Catalogue is set up in an excel spreadsheet format with separate sheets for different subject areas. Each course has its own row, which should be read from left to right, starting with the ‘level of study’, followed by the Course Code (a list of letters and numbers; for example, 4UBFCUOCCREWR0). When you have selected the course you want to apply for, you will need to include the course code on your application form. Each course is split into 2 or 3 ‘modules’ which are listed from left to right across the course row. You will study all of the modules in the course you have selected. Each course is made up of 60 UK credits, the equivalent of 30 ECTS or 15 US credits, considered full time study at the University. Courses will not normally be reduced, but please contact [email protected] if you have questions about this. Each course sets out the title of the module and has a description of the content of the module and how it is assessed (there is a key at the top of each subject group page). Some assessed presentations (PRES) and all exams (EX) will take place in January (Semester 1) and MAY (Semester 2).

  • A Brief History of Kentmere
    A Brief History of Kentmere Our story probably begins around 4000BC and it is likely that the first people to inhabit this valley were wandering groups who came here in the later Stone Age. At that time our hills were almost covered in forest and the few animals they had with them would graze along the edge of the wooded areas gradually clearing them. By Roman times much of the forest had been driven back so even in those early days farming had a significant impact upon the landscape and the farmers’ work over centuries eventually led to the attractive patchwork of fields, walls and woodland that we have today. It is probable that the first people to settle here were here came during the Iron Age. They would be Celtic farmers who between 100BC and AD400 built small communities in the valley. Four of these settlements have been discovered. The sites of their huts – although now little more that piles of stone – are still visible. The site at Millriggs is particularly interesting. A glass bracelet dating from AD150 was found there. The Romans came to this part of the world around AD90. They built a fort at Watercrook, Kendal and another at Galava, Ambleside and the road linking them ran through Kentmere. This road would be used by local people as well and perhaps there was a measure of trade with the Roman soldiers. Two places – ‘High Street’ and Broadgate’ show evidence of a paved road above Kentmere to the west although after the Romans left around AD400 the forts and roads all fell into disrepair and ruin.

It does not, however, constitute a definitive statement as to the status of any particular highway. • This is not a comprehensive list of the entire highway network in Cumbria although the majority of streets are included for information purposes. • The extent of the highway maintainable at public expense is not available on the list and can only be determined through the search process. • The List of Streets is a live record and is constantly being amended and updated. We update and republish it every 3 months. • Like many rural authorities, where some highways have no name at all, we usually record our information using a road numbering reference system. Street descriptors will be added to the list during the updating process along with any other missing information. • The list does not contain Recorded Public Rights of Way as shown on Cumbria County Council’s 1976 Definitive Map, nor does it contain streets that are privately maintained. • The list is property of Cumbria County Council and is only available to the public for viewing purposes and must not be copied or distributed.
