Students who are not following a Creative Practice Pathway may apply to undertake a placement module in their final year. If successful, they will take this module in place of one of their semester 1 options. The placement can be taken either during the summer vacation (part-time or full-time) or during semester 1 (part-time only). The placement must be completed prior to the Christmas vacation.
