This course has been created for people who are undertaking Master’s level study for the first time and wish to further develop their academic skills. Through a programme of guided study, learners will have opportunities to develop skills of enquiry, reflection and problem-solving, as well as to think and write critically on their chosen area of study. Topics such as academic and assignment writing are designed to offer practical skills for those students who have not previously studied at this level or who have had a gap in their educational journeys, to enable them to achieve their best quality of academic work.
