Sustained Study

Would you benefit from having a language, or perhaps some knowledge of business or science, alongside your main degree subject? Sustained Study is designed to provide you with continual exposure, throughout the first two years of your degree programme, to an area of study that is separate from your core discipline. Sustained Study involves a total of four courses, one each half-session for your first two years. To ensure that Sustained Study adds breadth to your chosen degree programme, you may not be eligible to take Sustained Study in a subject area which is close to your core discipline. Students must pass all four courses in order to qualify for Sustained Study.

Students may choose from the following:

  • Arabic (for beginners)
  • Biblical Language (Greek or Hebrew)
  • Business
  • Computing
  • Conservation and Environment
  • Fit for Life
  • French (beginner, intermediate or advanced)
  • Gaelic (beginner, intermediate or advanced)
  • German (beginner, intermediate)
  • Latin (beginner)
  • Mandarin Chinese (beginner)
  • Scandinavian Language (beginner)
  • Spanish (beginner, intermediate)
