University of London International Programmes Programme Specification and Regulations for Economics, Management, Finance and the Social Sciences (New Regulations)

Major changes to the degrees and diplomas in Economics, Management, Finance and the Social Sciences that take effect from 2011-12

Significant developments are being made to some of the structures, rules of progression and scheme of award that apply to the degrees and diplomas in Economics, Management, Finance and the Social Sciences (EMFSS). These changes are being made to align the programmes more closely with policy development at the LSE, the University of London International Academy policy and the FHEQ.

As a result of these changes, all EMFSS programmes will be re-launched under New Regulations which take effect for students who register under them from 30 November 2011.

The last date of registration for students registering for EMFSS programmes under the Old Regulations will also be 30 November 2011. The last examinations under the Old Regulations will be held in 2016. A student registered under the Old Regulations whose period of registration has yet to expire after the examinations in 2016 will have their registration transferred to the New Regulations in 2016.

A student registered for an EMFSS programme governed by the Old Regulations will not be permitted to transfer their registration to a programme governed by the New Regulations until 2016.

A student registered under the New Regulations will not be permitted to transfer their registration to any programme governed by the Old Regulations.
