SECTION 3 CRITICAL SKILLS There are some skills that we regard as critical for a university education and that every university graduate should have. These are also skills that are highly valued by today’s employers. You will have to be able to deal with complex arguments, evaluate evidence and make balanced judgements, and communicate ideas clearly, both verbally and in writing. Because these skills are so important, both in university and beyond, we are offering a specially designed foundation course for first year students in Critical Skills.
