Overview

Program Description The Pre-sessional Study Skills Courses prepare students for success on their degree by developing language skills and understanding of British academic culture and the expectations of a future department. During these intensive courses, students will have plenty of opportunities to practice and receive detailed feedback on a variety of academic tasks. They will gain competence in the research and writing skills needed for successful completion of written assignments in a chosen discipline, using appropriate academic conventions and avoiding plagiarism. Students will become familiar with the wide variety of resources available for research, and will develop skills for note taking while listening to academic lectures or reading specialist texts. They will also learn to give clear, comprehensible and well-structured presentations and to participate in seminars. The courses run for 42, 30, 12, and 6 weeks. Students who pass a Pre-sessional Study Skills Course at the level stated in their degree offer can progress automatically to their degree at Aberystwyth University.
