A recent paper by Goro Azumaya on M-projective and M-injective modules [1] suggests a generalization of the concept of hereditary rings to modules which is also capable of dualization. Section 2 is devoted to preliminaries on M-projective and M-infective modules.

In section 3, we introduce the notion of hereditary and cohereditary modules. An R-module is called hereditary if every R-submodule of it is projective. Cohereditary modules are defined dually.
