Individual Units
The individual units of our MMM MSc courses are ideally suited as shorter training courses for professionals in industry around the world.
Each 15-credit unit is available in both online distance-learning and part-time campus-based format and can be built up to lead to a postgraduate qualification.
Formal assessment is optional if you choose to take individual units only; however, if you wish to progress on to a postgraduate qualification then you will be required to complete the assignments and/or exams.
