可选课程

可供国际留学生选择攻读的课程很多，其中包括：

学制一年的硕士课程

学制三年的本科学士学位课程

具有同等学分直接转入大学本科三年级学习

以访问学生的身份在该校学习半年或一年。

完成硕士预科班或硕士预备短训班的学习后可直接进入本校硕士课程的学习。

参加英语语言课程的学习，提高自己的语言水平或为将来进入学位课程的学习作准备。

课程结构

主要教学形式为课堂授课、辅导课以及实践课。讨论会及小组辅导课气氛自由，学生可以有机会和老师或其他学生就某些问题进行详尽的探讨。

课堂演示及交互式工作室也是很有效的学习方法。如果您攻读的是理科或工科课程，那实验课和实践课可能会在课程中占很大成份。很多课程很安排有野外实习，实地考察以及出国学习等内容。

我校实行灵活的学分制度，学生可根据课程的规定选修科目，积累学分。一般来说，一门标准课目（module）为15或30学分。学位课程每学期必须达到60学分，一年120学分。由此，文科学士、理科学士和法学学士课程三年的总学分为360学分。文科硕士、理科硕士和工商管理硕士课程的总学分为180学分（包括论文在内），学生可在12至18个月内完成。课程至少有两个学期的课堂授课，论文主要在夏季学期完成。

课程考核

所学的每门课都要经过考核，考核的形式有个人作业，实验报告及正式书面考试，具体的考核方式视各科内容而定。毕业论文也可视为考核的一种形式，主要鉴定学生独立研究和思考的能力。对于理科、工程类、商业类或其它职业性课程，学生可能要选修一门研究性或以项目为主的科目。

就业指导

我们相信，我们的毕业生毕业后很快找到工作，其主要原因是我们的教学方针十分强调培养学生在交流、群组协作、信息管理、创造性思维及研究等方面的能力，同时我们还注重开发学生对新环境的灵活反应能力。

学生在攻读课程期间还学习与工作直接相关的技能，如新技术的使用、项目管理知识及解决实际问题的能力。另外，学生还要学会如何就某一题目进行演示演讲、合理计划工作、积极与其他人员配合工作 — 这些实用技能在世界各地备受用人单位看重。

各系与校外组织和职业机构密切合作，以保证我们的毕业生将来能胜任工作的要求。与我们合作的机构有福特汽车公司、CISCO网络公司等等。

培养职业技能

大学对开设的所有专业课程定期进行评估和更新，以保证课程内容、教学方法及教学目标更好地面向学生将来就业的需求。这一教学战略取得了良好的效果，在我们的毕业生中有93%的学生在毕业后的六个月内都能找到合适的工作或继续求学的机会。据《星期日泰晤士报》统计，我们的毕业生的平均起始工资居前50位。

实行学分制度的好处

学生通过每一门课的考核或考试后获取学分并从中看出自己的进步；

如果那门课第一次没有及格，学生还有补交作业或补考的权利；

如果学生觉得所学专业不合适，可在课程负责人的同意下，转到其它更为合适的专业学习；

一般情况下，学生可以在自己的专业范围之外选修其他专业的课目

如果本国具备同等研究条件和设施，学生可以回国完成论文的写作。

University Profile大学概况

Even before it became a university, Anglia Ruskin had strong links with employers, involving them in course design and delivery. Now Harrods, Barclays, UPS, Vision Express, Specsavers, Volvo, the RAF and British Army are among the employers whose staff take the university’s courses. And the university’s business-facing approach has spawned most recently a £6m business innovation centre, which includes a Startup Lab for Anglia Ruskin students to test and develop their entrepreneurial ideas.

Anglia Ruskin is one of the largest universities in Eastern England, with over 30,000 students, including part-timers. The two main campuses are at Cambridge and Chelmsford, some 40 miles apart with a smaller campus at Peterborough and University Centres in Harlow, King’s Lynn and Peterborough. 
For the first time, students beginning their studies this month will be charged the maximum £9,000 a year tuition fees, but scholarships and bursaries will reduce that sum for many. For instance, students entering with ABB or better at A-level (or equivalent) will get a £1,000 cash bursary for each year of their course.
The university has invested £122m in the last five years in the latest learning environments, including the £35m redevelopment of the Cambridge campus and two buildings dedicated to Health and Social Care in Chelmsford. 
It plans to spend another £98m over the next five years, beginning with the development of a new £9m site five minutes’ walk from the East Road campus, in Cambridge. A new Health Building is already open, as well as a Music Therapy Centre. The remainder of the site should be ready by Autumn 2015.
Anglia Ruskin was the last university to retain a polytechnic title, discarding it in 2005 when it took the name of John Ruskin, who founded the Cambridge School of Art, which evolved into Anglia Ruskin. It has since acquired the former Homerton College School of Health Studies in Cambridge, after a long period of partnership, and opened the £9.3m University Centre Harlow with Harlow College, Britain’s oldest journalism school. 
In Chelmsford, the 22-acre Rivermead campus boasts an impressive business school and a sports hall, as well as the £15m Marconi Building for law students. Recent additions include a new health and social care building with counselling rooms, simulated hospital wards, operating theatres and a complementary medicine suite. 
The university has a history of providing innovative courses: the BOptom (Hons) is the only qualification of its kind in the UK and the Hearing Aid Audiology course was among the first to lead directly to registration. Paramedic Science is the latest addition. 
Among the specialist study facilities are an Eye Clinic, forensic science laboratories, a Music Therapy Clinic, multimedia language laboratories, a Human Energetic Sports Science laboratory, and a mock courtroom. Electronic networking and a central administration mean that key academic facilities are available throughout all campuses. 
Nearly all the students attended state schools or colleges and almost 40% are from working-class homes. The projected dropout rate had improved in the latest survey, and is significantly better than the national average for its subjects and entry grades. 
Each undergraduate has an adviser to help compile a degree package which looks at the chosen subject from different points of view to maximise future job prospects. Three-quarters of the full-time undergraduate leavers who find jobs in the UK stay in East Anglia. The university has an innovative scheme placing graduates with the region’s small firms – usually the companies that are least likely to take on those emerging from higher education.
Anglia Ruskin stresses its green credentials and was the first UK university to sign the Rio+20 Declaration of Higher Education Institutions. Its Global Sustainability Institute, established in 2011, is building an international reputation for its research on behaviour change, resource scarcity and climate finance, and Anglia Ruskin is aiming to make sustainability an important part of every student’s experience. 
Only 71 academics were entered for the Research Assessment Exercise in 2008, but almost a third of their work was considered world-leading or internationally excellent. All but one of the nine subject areas had some top-rated research, with history, English and psychology producing the best grades. Psychology produced the best results among the post-1992 universities.
Famous alumni include Pink Floyd members Dave Gilmour and the late Syd Barrett. The social scene varies between the campuses, but Anglia Ruskin has two art galleries and a theatre. 
There is limited collaboration with Cambridge University on the Cambridge Centre for Cricketing Excellence, and a base for Anglia Ruskin’s Rowing Club. The university has a flourishing programme to encourage sporting participation and is particularly successful at elite level in judo. Sports facilities in Cambridge are being improved with the addition of a new pavilion, and both grass and artificial pitches, including one 3G surface. 
In the past, some students have found Chelmsford’s social scene underwhelming, but it is said to be improving, and neither main base is far from London by train.

First impressions

Most first-years end up in the student village in Chelmsford or halls in Cambridge, both of which have a great buzz.

Worst feature

You can’t pay by card at the bar, so bring lots of cash.

Making a difference

We have a students’ union advice service that help you deal with any problems you might face, including appeals.

Deal clincher

Our locations are brilliant, you’ll never be bored.
