    It is shown that an independence structure can be defined in a natural way on the set of uniform submodules of a module. Such an independence structure is modular. Thus, if it is connected and of rank at least three, it is a projective geometry coordinatizable over a division ring, of which we give a construction in terms of the module elements.
