In an increasingly globalised world economy, people
need special skills and qualities to succeed.
Employers want employees who can think effectively,
creatively and independently. This is an essential
part of the UK learning experience. Institutions use a
variety of teaching and assessment methods to
encourage independence, as well as mastery of the
subject.
UK scientists and institutions have won almost 100
Nobel Prizes for their scientific achievements. The
UK's creative brains 'artists, fashion designers, film
and television stars, and leisure software designers'
are regarded as among the best in the world. Their
work is worth £112 billion every year.
At degree and postgraduate level in particular,
students are encouraged to read widely, to question
and analyse what they have read, and to discuss openly
their own ideas in seminars and tutorials.
Career-based courses are designed to equip you for
specific roles in the modern world of work.
English language skills will be important for your
future career prospects. English is acknowledged as
the language of business, science, IT and the internet
around the world. Learning English in the UK allows
you to immerse yourself in the language, to live and
think in English.

distinct education systems: one for England, Wales
and Northern Ireland, and one for Scotland. Each
is compatible with the other. The Scottish
Parliament has devolved responsibility for
education in Scotland. Wherever you choose to
study, you will be able to study relevant,
world-class qualifications of exceptional quality. |
