Part-time
Part-time courses at CU Scarborough are delivered in a structured format in order to suit the needs of learners with busy lives. This study mode is suitable for those looking for a convenient route into higher education.
Each course is made up of short blocks of six weeks. You will usually study three blocks in one year. You need to study 12 blocks for a degree, 8 for a HND and 4 for the HNC.
Assessment methods could include coursework, essays, practical or project work, group work, presentations and tests. The Coventry University Group assessment strategy ensures that our courses are fairly assessed and allows us to monitor student progression towards the student achieving the intended learning outcomes.
Study one day a week
For many prospective students you may find it convenient to study for your degree or professional qualification on just one day a week.
Contact hours may be made up of a combination of face-to-face teaching, individual and group tutorials, and online classes and tutorials. Our courses are taught by academics and industry professionals. Please refer to your specific course webpage to review how your course will be assessed and the number of contact hours you will receive each week.
Depending on the course, teaching normally takes place 9am-5pm one day a week.
