Жизнь в колледже и университете

Академический (учебный) год в британском университете, Политехническом Институте, Колледже делится на три семестра, которые длятся с начала октября до середины декабря, с середины января до конца марта, и с середины апреля до начала июля соответственно. Около сотни университетов находятся в Оксфорде, Кембридже, Лондоне, Лидсе, Манчестере, Ливерпуле, Эдинбурге, Саутгемптоне, Кардиффе, Бристоле и Бирмингеме. Для поступления в университет необходимо получить две отличные оценки хотя бы по двум дисциплинам. Как бы то ни было, только успешной сдачи экзаменов недостаточно. Стать студентом университета можно только после собеседования. Для всех граждан Великобритании поступление в университет сопровождается получением гранта от местного отделения министерства образования. Британские университеты сильно отличаются друг от друга. Они различаются по дате основания, размерам, истории, традициям, образу жизни студентов. После трех лет обучения в университете, студент удостаивается звания бакалавра искусств, наук, инжиниринга, медицины и т д., после чего он может продолжить обучение до получения степени магистра или доктора. Исследования являются важной частью университетской работы. Две жемчужины британской системы образования - Оксфордский и Кембриджский университеты были основаны в двенадцатом и тринадцатом веках соответственно. Шотландские университеты Св. Андрея, Глазго, Абердина и Эдинбурга были основаны в пятнадцатом и шестнадцатом веках. В девятнадцатом и в начале двадцатого века были основаны так называемые университеты Редбрика в Лондоне, Манчестере, Лидсе, Ливерпуле, Шеффилде и Бирмингеме. В 60-х 70-х годах прошлого века было основано около двадцати университетов. Иногда их называют «университетами из стекла и бетона», как, например, университеты в Суссексе, Йорке, Ист Англия и т.д. В те годы государство основало тридцать политехнических университетов. Политехнические университеты, как и все прочие, предлагают первую и высшую ступень обучения. Некоторые из них предлагают как полный курс, так и заочное обучение. Образовательные колледжи предлагают двухгодичные учительские курсы, иногда - трехлетние, если студент специализируется на каком-то определенном предмете. Те, кто решил уйти из школы в 16 лет, могут поступить в образовательный колледж, на курсы печатания, инжиниринга, городского планирования, поварские или парикмахерские курсы (полный или частичный курс обучения). Образовательные колледжи имеют прочные связи с промышленными и коммерческими кругами. Так же существует интересная форма обучения, называющаяся Открытый Университет. Эта форма обучения предназначается для людей, которые учатся в свободное время, и принимают участие в лекциях посредством телевидения или радио. Они поддерживают контакт с преподавателями по телефону или посредством почты, и принимают участие в летних семинарах. Студенты Открытого Университета формально не получают какой- либо квалификации, и окончание оного не дает им преференций при поступлении в обычный университет. Около 80.000 иностранных студентов обучаются в университетах Британии, или в колледжах дальнейшего образования, или проходят тренинги на курсах медперсонала, банковского дела, промышленности или юриспруденции.

All applicants must take competitive examinations. Entrance examinations are held in July and August.

What is the procedure of applying to institution of higher learning in the USA?

In the USA students apply to each college or university individually. Successful applicants at colleges of higher education are usually chosen on the basis of: their high-school records which include their class rank, the list of all the courses taken and all the grades received in high school, test results, recommendation from their high-school teachers, the impression they make during interviews at the university, which is in fact a serious examination and scores on the Scholastic Aptitude Tests. Each institution will have its own application deadlines and procedures. However, nearly 300 American colleges and universities subscribe to a Common Application Form in order to simplify the undergraduate applications process. There is no limit to the number of colleges or universities a student can apply to, though an application must be submitted for each.

With an additional year of study one may get a Master's Degree and after two or three years of graduate work and writing of the dissertation it is possible to obtain a doctoral degree. For four years at the end of each year students have a final written examination. They take oral exams and write a dissertation only for advanced degrees.

Составьте рассказ на тему “Higher Education in Great Britain and Russia”

Higher Education in Great Britain and the Russia

There is a considerable choice of post-school education in Britain. In addition to universities, there are also polytechnics and a series of different types of assisted colleges, such as colleges of technology, art, etc., which tend to provide more work-orientated courses than universities.

Some of these courses are part-time, with the students being released by their employers for one day a week or longer periods.

Virtually all students on full-time courses receive grants or loans from the Government which cover their tuition fees and everyday expenses (accommodation, food, books, etc.).

Universities in Britain enjoy complete academic freedom, choosing their own staff and deciding which students to admit, what and how to teach, and which degrees to award (first degrees are called Bachelor degrees). They are mainly government-funded, except for the totally independent University of Buckingham.

There is no automatic admission to university, as there are only a limited number of places (around 100,000) available each year. Candidates are accepted on the basis of their A-level results. Virtually all degree courses are full-time and most last three years (medical and veterinary courses last five or six years).

Students who obtain their Bachelor degree (graduates) can apply to take a further degree course, usually involving a mixture of exam courses and research. There are two different types of postgraduate courses -- the Master's degree (MA or MSc) and higher degree of Doctor of Philosophy (PhD).

Russia has always shown a great concern for education. The right to education is stated in the Constitution of the Russian Federation. It is ensured by compulsory secondary schools, vocational schools, and higher education establishments. It is also ensured by the development of extramural and evening courses. The Russian educational policy is a combination of economic and social objectives. In the terms of the ration of students to the total population Russia ranks among the top ten countries in the world. There are a lot universities and colleges in Russia. They teach almost in all subject areas: Arts, Sciences, Law, Engineering, etc. The staffs are knowledgeable in their subjects. Higher educational institutions are headed by Rectors. Vice-rectors are in charge of the academic and scientific work. The Departments are headed by the Deans. There are subdivisions within Departments. Higher educational institutions train undergraduates and postgraduate students in one specialization. Usually after completing five years of study students receive a university degree. For five years at the end of each year students have oral examinations. Moreover, they write a graduate paper for a university degree. They write dissertations for advanced degrees. After three years of post-graduate work and the writing of the dissertation it is possible to obtain a candidate degree.
