Short Courses Option modules 2009/10
We are offering a small programme of weekly part-time courses (mornings, afternoons, evenings and some weekends) which are open to adults of all ages, with the aim of making university education as accessible as possible.
Unless specifically stated, our courses require no previous experience - enthusiasm and commitment is all that is required! All courses are taught in an informal and welcoming atmosphere by our dedicated team of tutors – come along and realise your potential.
In 2009/10 we are offering a programme of around 30 courses in:
- Archaeology
- Creative writing
- History
- History of art and architecture
- Language and culture
- Literature and film
- Music
- Science
- Social sciences
- Study skills
The courses provide the opportunity to learn about specific themes, sample a variety of disciplines or, over time, build up a wide knowledge within a favoured area of interest. They allow a flexible learning approach where you are free to design your own long-term programme of study, whilst being eligible to receive formal recognition of your efforts in terms of credit accumulation.
All are welcome
The School of Continuing Education is committed to Equal Opportunities, and all adults are welcome at our classes regardless of age, gender, race, disability or social or educational background.
Students with special needs
We are committed to providing access wherever possible for all students wishing to attend courses. If you tell us about your disability, medical condition or special learning need, we will do all we can to ensure that necessary provisions are made. It is very important that we are alerted in advance, so please fill in the relevant section on the enrolment form and we will contact you for further information if necessary.
