1.Прочитайте текст. The Universities
There are 96 university institutions in the United Kingdom, including the Open University. The Universities of London and Wales are federal institutions with a number of constituent colleges and research institutes. In addition there are more than 60 colleges of higher education. All of these institutions provide facilities for graduate study and research.
Academic year
The usual academic year consists of three 10-week terms and runs from October to May or June. Graduate study, however, doesn’t necessarily follow this pattern in that a number of programs involving courses of instruction are of 12, 15, 21 or 24 months» duration (often requiring research or project work during the long vacation). Students undertaking supervised research seldom complete their studies within the limits of the formal academic year.
Master’s degrees
Full-time study for a master degree lasts for one or two years and involves either attendance at taught courses followed by written examinations (a dissertation may also be required), or supervised research culminating in the preparation of a thesis, or some combination of the two.
Doctorates
All universities provide facilities for advanced study and research, usually within the fields in which first degrees are granted, leading to the degree of doctor of Philosophy (PhD/ DPhil) which can normally be taken in all or most facilities or schools. Taking a PhD full-time normally involves at least three years» supervised research. Many universities require students who wish to study for a PhD to register first for a master’s degree.
Most universities also offer postgraduate diplomas or postgraduate certificates on the successful completion of a taught course. Costs Tuition fees are determined by each institution and may vary considerably from one university to another. The most recent data available (collated by the Committee of Vice-Chancellors and Principals of the United Kingdom Universities) indicate that the average fees for neon-European Union post-graduate students at British universities were £6300 for classroom based courses in 1997/98. Fees for science courses and clinical years of courses in medicine, dentistry and veterinary science are considerably higher than those for arts degrees and fees of £8200 were charged for laboratory based courses. At Cambridge and Oxford significant college fees are payable in addition to those charged by the university. It is therefore difficult to give any accurate indication of likely fee levels and the current fees should be checked with individual institutions. It should also be borne in mind that fees are determined year by year and, like the cost of living, are unlikely to remain the same for the full duration of a course lasting longer than one year.
To cover all expenses, other than tuition fees, for 12 months it is estimated that a single student not accompanied by spouse or child would need between £6000 and £9000, depending on the location of the university, the type of accommodation obtained and personal needs. The figure for London is currently estimated at £7000–9000, and £6000–8000 elsewhere. There are likely to be additional essential expenses on arrival such as books and equipment, clothing, deposit on rented accommodation or temporary accommodation and allowance should be made for this. Because of inflation, cost of living figures have to be revised frequently and advice on what the total cost of study and residence is likely to be should be sought from the registrar of the university concerned at an early stage. The British Council produces leaflets giving general information including the cost of studying in Britain.
