WHICH COURSE IS RIGHT FOR YOU? We’ve included the courses that are likely to be of most interest to you in this prospectus; but many more are available. Please see our website for all available courses. Pre-sessional English Programme Our course is designed for international students who need to reach the level of English language skills required to study at UWE Bristol. The course will enable you to cope with all aspects of studying and living in the UK. International Summer School Programme We have a range of summer schools on offer where you can improve your English language skills, enhance your knowledge of a subject you enjoy, develop your professional skills or simply spend time in the UK experiencing British culture. Distance learning Distance learning allows you to study remotely without being in regular face-to-face contact. Some courses may require you to attend the University at times for study sessions. Undergraduate bachelor’s degree This is usually a three-year degree course and the award is either a Bachelor of Arts (BA), Bachelor of Science (BSc), Bachelor of Engineering (BEng) or Bachelor of Law (LLB).
We also offer MEng(Hons) and MSci degrees in certain subjects. These are undergraduate master’s degrees, which have an additional final year of postgraduatelevel study built in so you graduate with a master’slevel qualification. Some architecture degrees, some engineering degrees, and all degrees with an optional placement year, last four years. Postgraduate taught master’s degree This usually includes nine months of teaching plus a three-month research project, which can be undertaken anywhere in the world. The award is either a Master of Arts (MA), Master of Science (MSc), Master of Law (LLM) or Master of Business Administration (MBA). We also have two-year master’s courses in both Information Technology and International Management, which have the option of a placement to gain experience. Please note that while we support students to do this, we cannot guarantee the availability of placements. Postgraduate research degree The Professional Doctorate (Prof Doc), Master of Research (MRes), Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) and Master of Philosophy (MPhil) are all research degrees with little or no teaching involved. Research degrees take at least two to three years to complete and often longer.

COLLEGE

Your path to UWE Bristol UWE Bristol’s International College is a joint educational partnership between UWE Bristol and Kaplan International Pathways.

What is a pathway course?
the level needed for entry onto a UWE Bristol postgraduate degree.
If you have completed high school or university, but don’t meet the entry requirements for our undergraduate or postgraduate degrees, you can gain a place through a pathway course. This will give you the skills and knowledge needed to progress onto your degree at UWE Bristol. You’re guaranteed entry* to your degree course as long as you pass at the required level with good attendance. On-campus pathway courses Foundation Certificate To qualify for entry to an undergraduate degree at UWE Bristol, you can take a Foundation Certificate, which will fully prepare you and then allow you to progress to the first year of your degree. 34
International Year One (IYO) If you’ve finished high school with good grades, you might qualify to study an IYO. This combines university preparation with content that is similar to that of an undergraduate first year, allowing you to progress directly to the second year of your degree.
Off-campus pathway course Pre-Doctorate If you already have a degree, and wish to study a UWE Bristol doctoral degree, you can prepare with a Pre-Doctorate at Kaplan’s International College in London. The course will help you to navigate the process of applying for a UK doctoral degree and show you how to best present yourself and your research ideas to universities at doctoral level. * This guarantee applies to the Foundation Certificate, International Year One and Pre-Master’s courses. For the Pre-Doctorate, you’re guaranteed an interview for a doctoral degree at UWE Bristol if your research topic matches the University’s priority areas.
