  • encourage and help you develop an understanding of the academic and cultural context of university study in order for you to be fully involved in your degree course.

Successful completion of this course will then allow you to progress onto your chosen School of Study. Please check the minimum entry requirements for your proposed degree before applying.Course optionsOn the course students will study the following subjects each week:
  • Reading and writing skills: essay / report / project writing
  • Speaking and listening skills: note-taking from lectures, giving presentations
