Study
support
For
each year of this course students must come to the UK for a two-week
intensive residential course. These courses supplement
the tuition received through the submission of assignments. As
well as the obvious academic advantages of these courses, they
enable students to get to know one another and many keep in touch
with each other for the entire length of the degree and beyond.
Course
notes are sent out each month, and students are set assignments
which must be completed and submitted to GKT for marking
and comments. Assignments are scheduled between January and September
of each year, and the marks for some of these will count towards
the student's assessment.
