Universities in Great Britain

Students from any part of Great Britain and Northern Ireland can be admitted to any of the Universities.

Universities operate under royal charters and have complete academic freedom: they decide which students to admit, what, and how to teach, which degrees to award and on what conditions. All universities receive grants recommended by the University Grants Committee. There are thirty-six universities in England and Wales, eight in Scotland and two in Northern Ireland.

The University of London is by far the largest conventional university. It has some 40,500 full-time students. The Universities of Wales, Cambridge, Leeds and Manchester each has over 10,000 full-time students in the academic year.

Most undergraduates in Great Britain are taking courses of three years duration.

Universities are centres of research as well as teaching. Post-graduate students in Great Britain are doing research for higher degrees, usually doctorates.

Applications from prospective students for admission to first-degree courses at universities are submitted through the Universities' Central Council on Admission (UCCA). When completing an application, a candidate can list up to five universities or colleges, in order of preference. UCCA sends a copy to each of the universities, or colleges, the applicant has named. Each university selects its own students; the UCCA system does not interfere with this autonomy. Applicants for post-graduate studies apply directly to the university.

The college system at Oxford and Cambridge is unlike that of any other university, whether in Britain or America.

The university is like a federation of colleges. The university arranges courses, the lectures, and the examinations, and awards the degrees. No lectures are compulsory and tutors usually advise their students which lectures they should go to. Tutors are responsible for students' progress.

Each college has its own completely separate living quarters, its own dining hall and its own chapel. Cambridge has three women's colleges, Oxford — five. Today many of the men's colleges are coeducational.

At most universities an honours degree is taken in one main subject and one secondary subject. A general degree is taken in a variety of sub­jects, but carries less weight than an honours degree. If students pass their final exam, they get a degree marked First, Second or Third Class. Oxford offers a Fourth Class. Few students get First Class degrees, so these are a valuable qualification for a job. Students with any class of degree become Bachelors of Arts or Science. If they want to go a step further and become Master of Arts or Science, they have to write an ori­ginal paper, or thesis, on some subject. Graduates who get degrees in engineering, technology, medi­cine, or maths are almost certain of getting a good job. But the majority of undergraduates still prefer arts subjects or the social sciences.

Notes to the text:

Royal charter – королевская хартия (закон); full-time student – студент дневного отделения; to submit – представлять на рассмотрение; tutor – руководитель группы студентов; honours degree – диплом с отличием.
