    You will develop key academic skills including research, writing, presentation and analysis.
  • Subject modules

    You will look at the basics of your chosen area of study so that you have the knowledge you need before progressing to more specialised study.
  • Pathway modules

    You will focus on the particular topics and skills you will need most in your chosen undergraduate degree course.
  • Student Tutorials

    All students have a Learning Support Tutor who will work with you throughout your academic programme at the college, and support you in achieving your study goals. Through regular meetings, your tutor can offer valuable advice to help you develop your study skills and knowledge, ensuring you receive the best possible education.

    All modules are taught with your progression to the University of Glasgow in mind. They are tailored to meet the needs of international students.
