The courses share learning outcome and curriculum, but the delivery is different in terms of mode and pace. The full-time course is completed in one year (October to September), whereas the part time takes place over two years (October Year 1 to September Year 2). The course materials also present the course content differently, as online learners receive pre-recorded lectures, interactive online activities and a desk-based research project, whereas full-time students receive only face-to-face teaching and usually experience a lab-based project.
