How many contact hours are there on the course?
This varies depending on optional modules chosen by students. Some modules emphasise structured contact time while others emphasise individual study. In general, each semester involves around 600 hours of 'effort time', which comprises a range of teaching and assesment methods. We place a lot of importance on small group teaching, such as seminars, and in students working individually and with their peers on defined projects. In addition to structured lectures on a one-to-one basis: we operate an 'open door' policy. Unlike some other institutions, all of our lecturers and professors are actively involved in teaching.
