Ololade from NigeriaUndergraduate Foundation Programme Engineering and SciencesProgressed to Electronic and Electrical Engineering BEng (Hons)

Studying at the International Study Centre really helped me to get used to the city, go out and really experience Glasgow life. At the International Study Centre I had more time to go around. I had a lot of things to do still but the pressure wasn’t that much on me. I got to get used to the weather, the food, going around which was really good because now in my second year I’m studying and making sure I’m at the top of my class, so I don’t really have time to see the city and explore it.

Disclaimer

This prospectus is issued for the general guidance of students considering entry to the University of Strathclyde International Study Centre from September 2017. The information is correct at the time of going to press and the programmes and services described herein are those which Study Group is planning to offer. We make every effort to ensure that the content of our prospectus, website and other materials is accurate. However, on occasion it may be necessary to alter certain aspects of a module or programme, for example if changes are required to meet external requirements; or if programmes are over-subscribed and the quality of teaching would be adversely affected as a result.

In such circumstances we may have to alter the timetable, change the teaching location of the programme or, in extreme cases, cancel or substantially amend the content of the programme. Should any of these changes become necessary, we will give you as much notice as possible before they come into effect and ensure that any disruption to your studies is minimised.

If your programme is cancelled, we will work in consultation with you to offer a suitable alternative, subject to meeting the admission requirements for that programme or the opportunity to obtain a refund of any advance payments you have made for the programme. The alternative programme may not be at the same International Study Centre as the original offer.

Courses offered in this prospectus are validated by the University. The University (where applicable) also reserves the right to amend the regulations governing those programmes without prior notice. Study Group therefore strongly recommends that immediately prior to making any application to/or accepting any offer from, Study Group you should refer to the most up-to-date version of the programme descriptions and specifications and the regulations on the University of Strathclyde International Study Centre website.

Neither the University nor Study Group shall be liable for any errors or omissions that may be contained in this prospectus.
