Individual research projects help you learn to adapt and apply specific methodologies to unfamiliar problems
Class sizes
For specialist modules our classes are usually limited to 20 students in lab sessions and 40 in lectures This helps to create familiarity between students and staff and ensure a great learning experience The modules that run across several courses can have larger classes sizes which are typically broken down into smaller groups
Independent learning
Our courses are designed to give you the space for exploratory and independent study You'll work towards individual and group assignments and undertake the preparation follow-up work associated with lectures seminars integrative assignments and laboratory classes
We encourage students to take advantage of a range of related extra-curricular opportunities available within the university and elsewhere
Overall workload
If you are studying full-time you should expect the workload to be similar to a full-time job For part-time students this will reduce in proportion with the number of courses you are studying
Assessment
