University of Hull

The history and american studies departments are both good and well organized. Unfortunantlythe university has cut funding for degree programs in foreign languages. Hence, access to certain langage courses is more limited starting in thge 2001-2002 accademic year. However the Language Institute is very good and has lots of resources for 60 something languages and they teach beggining through advanced levels in several languages that can be taken as part of a degree or as an extra course. Course are offered in languages as diverse as Spanish, French, Itallian, Japanese, Chinese, Dutch and German to name a few. There is also English for accademic purposes for non native speakers of English.

Note that thge forms and typew of assesment can be diffent depending on your department(s). Ask questions and be sure to follow your departments guidelines. Make sure you find out who your personal supervisor is and how to reach them in case you need to ask for anything In terms of departmental/exams policies. The secrataries in the departments can also be a wealth of info when your stuck and don't know what to do.

"Medieval Literature" is very good. Have heard that "Fire and Ice" is supposed to just as good (the same lecturer).

It's been a while now, don't really now how the status is there now.

prepare the lecture before going to because it will be easier to understand the lecture when you know what it is talking about

The main thing that I did not like about the academic evaluation was that nearly all of the exams took place at the very end of the semester, and one exam determined the whole mark for a class.

More evaluation throughout the semester

Exams should only take place at the end of the course

they should introduce msc economics

they should give msc public policy students a week for lectures,a week for assignments
