Studying at Nottingham is an experience that goes far beyond traditional lectures. A flexible approach to teaching combines established teaching methods, such as tutorials, with interactive and web-based methods. Facilities from lecture theatres to laboratories are continually modernised and upgraded to provide the very best in up-to-date teaching facilities.
The University's modular course system provides a flexible range of self-contained study units which allows students to study the combination of subjects that suits them best. Each student is allocated their own personal tutor to help with personal and academic issues. A taste of the 'real world' is provided on many degree courses through presentations and lectures from visiting speakers from industry.
The University's flexible philosophy encourages students to graduate with skills that will enhance their academic abilities. The Personal and Academic Records system enables students to develop a range of skills through independent study and extra-curricular activities, with a record of achievements to add to their curriculum vitae on graduation.
Nottingham's founder member status of Universitas 21 and its involvement with the Socrates-Erasmus Programme means that students can take advantage of many opportunities to live, study and travel overseas, broadening their experience and improving their language skills.
The University prides itself on its achievements in attracting students from 'non-traditional' backgrounds. A recent report by the Sutton Trust has found that the University's widening participation initiatives are working well, with the number of such entrants increasing by almost 50% between 1997 and 2002. Nottingham is also shown to be among the universities with the lowest drop-out rate.
There is a wide range of support for students to help them make the most from their time at Nottingham. Student Services provide a range of specialist services including disability support, study support, dyslexia support and financial support. There is also a confidential counselling service and a student advice centre.
Academic life is easily balanced with day-to-day needs with a range of facilities from the day nursery and Cripps Health Centre to the chapel, Muslim prayer rooms and multi-faith quiet room.
International Students will find additional support for the issues they face through the International Office. For those studying in the UK for the first time, there is an intensive four-week course held every September which helps students make the most of their stay in the UK. The Welcome Programme runs just before the academic year begins and provides a programme of activities to help international students settle in to university life.
