Welcome

How do I apply?

Swansea Metropolitan University has been a major centre for the delivery of vocational higher education since 1853. We employ more than 500 staff and teach more than 6,500 students. The University was formed from the three former Swansea colleges of Art, Teacher Education and Technology which were founded in 1853, 1872 and 1895 respectively.

Please use the form at the end of the brochure or apply online at www.smu.ac.uk. Further details are available from the Registry. You can apply at any time between now and the start of the course, but an early application is advisable.

A Transforming University

Registry staff will probably be able to answer most of your questions. If you want specific course details or advice on particular entry requirements, then Registry staff may advise you to contact the appropriate member of our teaching staff.

Swansea Met has decided to merge with the University of Wales: Trinity Saint David and the University of Wales. The unified institution will be merged under the 1828 Royal Charter of the University of Wales: Trinity Saint David. This is a historic decision and offers the transformed University the opportunity to continue to serve higher education within a Welsh, UK and international context. It is envisaged that the institutions will merge during 2012/13. This exciting announcement will not affect your application or future studies with us in any way. Our courses will continue to be delivered from our campuses in Swansea and we will continue to be known as Swansea Metropolitan or “Swansea Met” under the auspices of the new transformed University. If you would like further information or updates regarding the merger, please visit www.smu.ac.uk

Part-Time Study Studying for a qualification around your busy lifestyle is more than possible with a wide range of career focused part-time courses at Swansea Metropolitan University. The University offers higher degrees by research, a wide range of taught programmes and a number of popular professional qualifications. All have been designed with the world of work in mind. If you would like to study towards an undergraduate degree or HND but can’t commit to studying on a full-time basis, studying on a part-time basis might be the key to your future success. You can study around your current commitments, at your own pace, gradually gaining credit which will count towards your final qualification. Studying for an undergraduate qualification can take between two and six years to complete, depending on how much time you have available to commit towards the course. There are no fees for anyone who is unwaged and studying part-time towards an undergraduate qualification.

What if I have some questions?

Registry Office Hours The Registry is open between: Monday to Thursday: 8.30am - 5.00pm Friday: 8.30am - 4.30pm An answerphone service is available outside these hours. Should you wish to call in person, the Registry can be found on the Mount Pleasant Campus. Freephone: 0800 731 0884

What entry qualifications do I need? These vary from course to course and are detailed in this brochure under each course’s entry.

Other Skills Considered Our offers are not solely based on academic results. We take your skills, achievements and life experience into consideration.

Access Courses An increasing number of mature students apply to the University following completion of Access courses. Access courses are run in partnership with local Further Education Colleges and can lead students onto degree courses. Access courses are designed for people with few or no formal qualifications, who would benefit from some study experience. The University is a member of the South West Wales Access Consortium.

Credit for Prior Learning

Fees

The University will recognise and may give credit for learning and outcomes, however achieved. If you have a professional qualification or a qualification from another institution, you may also receive credit at the discretion of the University.

The fees for the programmes will vary according to the level and the number of hours of study followed. Some programmes have residential or workshop elements to them, and costs are normally included in the fees quoted. Where programmes prepare students for examinations set by another body, you will have to pay those fees yourself. Registration fees are payable for some programmes. This applies to waged and unwaged. With the exception of such registration fees (which cover a period of time longer than a year), all fees quoted are payable each year.

Assessment of Prior Experiential Learning (APEL) Knowledge and skills acquired through work experience or in-house training are eligible for consideration for exemption. This includes study which may not have been formally tested.

‘Advanced Standing’ Exemptions may be awarded which permit a student to enter with ‘advanced standing’. If you have previously studied at higher education level, for example, you may wish to apply for entry to Level 2 of a degree scheme. Applicants for ‘advanced standing’ would normally hold an award in an appropriate subject or have an equivalent qualification.

Library and Learning Resources All students on part-time programmes can use any of the Libraries on the main campuses at Mount Pleasant, Dynevor, Tˆy Bryn Glas and Townhill. More than a thousand current journals are taken and students are able to borrow from a collection of over 180,000 volumes. Internet connected computers are available for use in each library.

Computing Open access rooms are available on Mount Pleasant, Dynevor, Tˆy Bryn Glas and Townhill Campuses from about 8.30am to 8.30pm on Mondays to Thursdays, and until 4.30pm on Fridays. The Libraries have computer rooms which are open when the Libraries are open.

Catering Facilities are available on all Campuses for a range of hot and cold snacks and drinks. The modern student refreshment areas at Mount Pleasant and Tˆy Bryn Glas will, in particular, cater for students attending part-time evening courses.

The University and Sustainability The University is committed to sustainability. We have gained top grades for sustainability in the British university sector and have won a number of awards such as the Wales Sustainable Business award. Most of our courses consider relevant aspects of sustainability. We have significantly reduced our carbon footprint alongside our energy and water usage. In 2010 over half our waste was recycled. Students and staff are encouraged to travel more sustainably and we are working towards gaining environmental management certification. We have a large wildlife area on our Townhill Campus which includes an outdoor classroom and teaching space. For more information, visit the sustainability pages on the University website.

Faculty of Business and Management - New Campus Development The Faculty of Business and Management will be moving to a new campus building from September 2012. This will help the Faculty improve its facilities and create a fantastic new learning environment for its students. The new Faculty of Business and Management building is very near Swansea Train Station, about a ten minute walk from the Mount Pleasant Campus. The Faculty is taking over a large, modern, purpose-built office block, which is being converted into a teaching space. For further details, please visit www.smu.ac.uk/businessmove

Transport All campuses lie on main bus routes with regular bus services between the City Centre and the Campuses. During term time, a daytime bus service goes to all Campuses. Parking for cars is limited, especially at Mount Pleasant, with on-street parking nearby being restricted. In the evenings, it is easier, and parking is possible on the Townhill Campus, whilst some parking for students may be possible at Pen-y-Bryn, near the Mount Pleasant Campus. Special provision can be made for disabled drivers. There are several car parks near Tˆy Bryn Glas, the new Faculty of Business and Management building next to High Street Station. The Mount Pleasant Campus is a 10-minute walk from Swansea’s High Street railway station.

Swansea Metropolitan University is a registered charity. Our charity reference number is 1139800.

BSc(Hons) Quantity Surveying Course Description: Quantity Surveying is the UK term for Commercial Management; from house building to process engineering on oil rigs, these surveyors need to have strong financial, analytical, interpretative and teamwork skills. Clients rely on their judgement to ensure the smooth running of the project. They are involved in infrastructure work such as building motorways and bridges. Their involvement in development projects begins at the feasibility stage, continues through the detailed design and construction stages and will often continue when the project is completed and handed over.

Consequently no two days are the same. A typical day could include a cost plan appraisal of schematic development plans, preparing a Bill of Quantities for a new project, visiting a site under construction to carry a measured valuation of works undertaken to prepare the payment certificate, followed by a meeting with the client to discuss the financial status of the project. Quantity surveyors require a keen eye for detail together with commercial awareness and a good knowledge of the construction methods. Quantity Surveyors are increasingly required to use sophisticated software to interpret designs produced using Computer Aided Modelling. Students will be introduced to a wide range of quantity surveying processes using traditional manual and computerised techniques to provide a good grounding for their careers in the industry.

Glass

Glass Faculty of Applied Design and Engineering

MA Glass Course Description: The MA Glass course builds upon the Schoolâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 75 years of experience as the only specialist School of Architectural Glass in the UK. The masters course aims to develop practice that is concerned with re-evaluating architectural glass traditions, conventions and value systems. It is this rigorous re-interpretation process, both physical and psychological, that will inevitably define the parameters of the individual student's personal study. Glass offers some remarkable properties, not least transparency and durability. These have been exploited in the architectural context for thousands of years. Huge advances have been made in glass technology, and it would seem that the possibilities of the material grow daily rather than diminish. The pace of change is such that it has made it difficult for the practitioner to keep abreast of new developments. This MA provides the opportunity to explore these new possibilities and knowledge as well as developing new skills and approaches to working in glass. This course is ideally suited to applicants who are involved with or who have a background in the applied and decorative arts though candidates from a wide variety of design backgrounds will be considered.

Specialist options within the programme include traditional glass painting, glass painting, kiln-formed and hot glass, stained glass and decorative applications on float glass, such as sand blast engraving, acid etching, wheel engraving and gilding. The modules are project based and taught by specialist staff in well-equipped workshops. Professional standards of creative design, sound craftsmanship and architectural awareness are instilled throughout the course. Studies are supported by visual, professional and historical studies, including the history of stained and decorative glass. The School has strong links with industry in Britain and abroad, especially Finland, France and Germany, and provides opportunity for visits, exchanges and work placements.

Entry Requirements: Offers are not solely based on academic results. We take your skills, achievements and life experience into consideration.
