Part-time study is different for everyone, and you will decide which route is best for you. WHAT you wish to study is important, and the programmes in the guide will provide you with a wide range of options. Guidance staff in Key Learning Opportunities are also there to help you in making your choices. Before you begin a course, we will write to you with the name of your Adviser of Studies, who is there to provide advice and guidance, and to help you with academic decisions.
Most programmes run in the evening, usually with one class meeting a week or a fortnight.
Others, like the daytime part-time degree programme, are available during the day, when you will join with other undergraduates. For this reason, you will study within a normal timetable. You should be aware that you could require to be in the University three or four times a week, for an hour or so, depending on the subjects you choose. Other courses may be at weekends, while some programmes are available both day and evening, like Access or Counselling Skills. Another group of courses is available at any time, because they are studied using a computer link to the University from your home or work.
