Hello and welcome

Thank you for taking an interest in Anglia Ruskin University, I would like to welcome you.

I hope this prospectus gives you much of the information you need, and that you will want to find out more by coming along to one of our Open Days. That is when you will discover what a friendly place we are, offering plenty of support and guidance throughout your student experience with us.

This support takes many forms, but most importantly we focus right from the start on helping you work towards your chosen career, for example, we offer every student in Years 2 and 3 the chance to study our entrepreneurship module. We have close partnerships with local, national and international businesses, and at the time of writing, 91% of our students are finding employment or further study within six months of graduating.

Our international outlook is something else you will notice. Increasing numbers of overseas students choose to study with us, helping us develop a truly diverse community here.

So we are proud to be a modern university – but we are also proud of our long history. This dates back to 1858, when John Ruskin founded the Cambridge School of Art, now part of our Cambridge campus. Ruskin had wide-ranging interests, including painting, architecture and philosophy; he had a creative, enquiring mind, and was not afraid to be unconventional. These are all qualities we encourage in our students, and I believe they enrich not only the academic life at Anglia Ruskin, but also our culture and social interaction.

Ruskin’s influence is also behind the range of expertise we have here. Our reputation is growing in a wide variety of fields, giving our students a wealth of opportunities.

You can take these opportunities at one of our two main campuses: in Cambridge itself, the historic seat of learning, or in Chelmsford, the county town of Essex. Both offer a lively, rewarding setting for student life, and both provide access to excellent facilities for study, sports, and social activities. We are constantly striving to improve our campuses and facilities, and our developments continue with both our students, staff and ‘green’ needs in mind.

Our campuses reflect environmental values and we encourage ‘green’ thinking throughout our University. As we do not have any student parking (other than for those with a disability) available on our campuses, we actively discourage students from travelling by car, and we encourage utilisation of the variety of public transport options available.

I hope you enjoy finding out about our University, and that you will consider joining us. We are committed to making your time here happy and fulfilling – and to supporting you in your next steps in life.

Working towards your future

Careers and EmployabilityYour future will be influenced by your experiences at Anglia Ruskin, and also opportunities presented by the careers and employment available to you. We take a holistic view that incorporates your key course studies and includes a range of opportunities for you to widen your skills.

Entrepreneurial Module As part of our commitment to enhancing the employability of all of our students, in all types and sizes of organisations, we have introduced entrepreneurship modules in Years 2 and 3.

Whatever subject you are studying, you will have the opportunity to review the behaviours, skills and knowledge surrounding entrepreneurship. You will come into direct contact with practising entrepreneurs during these modules, giving you the opportunity to learn from real-life experiences and to ground theory within practice.

Creative and innovative employees will be vital to an organisation’s future success. We study the ways in which you can add value to organisations by networking and building relationships, by commercialising ideas, by developing management and leadership skills, and by an increased awareness of the competitive positioning of their organisations within a fast-moving global environment.

The modules will also use online materials to equip you with the key knowledge and skills required for successful business start-up activity, should running your own business be your personal goal at some time in the future.

Careers LibraryYou can explore your options in our Careers Libraries – based in Cambridge and Chelmsford, where we have reference material, desk space and computer terminals. The ‘Advice’ section of our website also allows you to browse our Careers Information Library in addition to further essential information on career choices, employers, the jobs market and vacancies.

Click: www.anglia.ac.uk/careers

Careers AdvisersOur careers advisers will analyse what skills you have, and what you need to develop. They can also help you negotiate the job market and make well-informed decisions at every stage. We have strong links with employers and access to a wide range of graduate opportunities – at local, regional, national and international levels. So whether you want some work experience, a chance to build on particular skills, or a graduate opportunity, we can help.

You can book a one-to-one, confidential appointment with a careers adviser – before you start here, while you are a student, or after you graduate. In our Careers and Employability Centres, we offer ‘quick-query’ drop-in sessions most weekday afternoons and our careers advisers also attend our Open Days.

Employer Mentoring SchemeWe run a well-established Employer MentoringScheme,matchingindividualsecond-year students with local employers, who help them understand the job market and develop relevant skills.

And it doesn’t end when you graduate. We embrace the principles of life-long learning, and the importance of keeping your skills and qualifications relevant and up-to-date. All of our graduates have access to our Careers Service long after they leave.

Employment opportunities for equine studies students Our degree has been developed with a strong emphasis on industry-relevant skills, underpinned by sound scientific knowledge and understanding. Through engagement with elements of skills and work-based learning, you will be able to relate your developing subject knowledge to context-specific theory and practice in equine businesses, regionally and nationally.

Our courses will develop your ability to evaluate critically ‘standard’ practice and offer alternative solutions to problems encountered in the complex equine yard and business environments. We will ensure that you will be an ideal candidate for development or management positions within nutrition, breeding and welfare establishments, livery and stud yards, riding schools and educational and research institutions.

Equine studies graduates will be expert users of equipment within our Equine Therapy Centre (such as the aqua treadmill and equine spa) which will be a key attribute when seeking employment in professional yards, equine speciality centres such as equine hospitals and veterinary practices, as well as providing a potential route for self-employment.

Employment Bureau

Our Employment Bureau (EB) is our on-campus recruitment agency dedicated to supporting students looking to undertake part-time work whilst studying, to earn some additional money and/or to develop key employability skills to enhance their university experience. With offices on both our Cambridge and Chelmsford campuses, the EB offers two core services:

Temporary workIf you are looking to supplement your income, the EB may be able to find temporary work for you, or point you in the direction of the many employers who advertise through our EB.

Anglia Ruskin is one of the few universities in the country that ensures any requirements for temporary workers on-campus are made available to our students in the first instance, therefore providing a range of work which is convenient and designed to fit neatly around your academic studies.

In addition, our EB deals with a number of employers in the local area who come to them with similar enquiries.

Our EB offers excellent rates of pay and a range of opportunities such as: administration, catering assistants, customer service assistants, retail positions, Open Day helpers, Student Ambassadors and data entry work.

Whatever the work, it provides an excellent opportunity to add value to your course of study and enhance your CV. Employers are keen to see students graduating with employability skills, and the work you may get via our EB can be used to demonstrate this.

Permanent placementOnce you have completed your degree, our EB can help you to find your ideal permanent position. The EB has proven success in placing Anglia Ruskin graduates. In the last year, the EB secured permanent positions for our graduates in a number of areas, including: marketing, business administration, sales, customer service, graphic design, quantity surveying and web development.

Our EB will act on your behalf when applying for positions with these employers, assisting with the presentation of your CV, preparing you for interviews and supporting you through this process.

Cornelius Group began a relationship with Anglia Ruskin in 2007 when we identified an opening for a marketing executive. The successful placement of an Anglia Ruskin graduate in this role led to the development of a beneficial relationship for both sides.

We have since strengthened this relationship through further graduate placements and undergraduate projects which have been very successful for our business.Mostrecently,weapproachedthe Employment Bureau for a suitable candidate for the role of Sales & MarketingExecutiveandarevery pleased with the Anglia Ruskin graduate that filled this vacancy.

Michèle Lambert Human Resource & Quality Officer Cornelius

IgraduatedwithaBA(Hons)Marketingin 2008 and wanted to find my ultimate dream job so I joined the Employment Bureau. Receiving details each week of several job vacancies was great, as other agencies were quiet due to the start of the recession. Without the support from Anglia Ruskin, I doubt I would have found a job of this quality.

AsaSales&MarketingExecutive at Cornelius, a leading distributor of speciality chemicals in the UK and Ireland, my role entails managing customers and suppliers worldwide.

Studying my degree at Anglia Ruskin definitely helped me get this role. It was my starting block and I hope to accomplish many great things in my future at Cornelius.

Mariam KhadbaiSales&MarketingExecutive

I approached the Employment Bureau as I was looking to supplement my studies with a rewarding role that would fit around my degree course, whilst still giving me the flexibility and understanding I need as a student. As I worked full-time prior to starting my course at Anglia Ruskin, I was ready to devote myself to being a student so they suggested becoming a Student Ambassador would be a good fit.

I really enjoy the diversity of events I get to work on, which include: Open Days, marketing, University tours and more, plus the money helps too! Stephen McGoldrickBSc (Hons) Psychology2nd Year Student

We have been awarded the Carbon Trust Standard by reducing our carbon footprint and showing we are committed to reducing it year-on-year. After taking action on climate change by measuring and reducing our carbon footprint by 6% in absolute terms (based on emissions from energy, water and waste), we saved 580 tonnes of C02 over a two-year period.

OurEnvironmentalManagementSystemiscertified to the internationally recognised ISO 14001 standard and we are one of only a handful of universities to have achieved this. We were ranked 10th out of 147 UK universities in the University Green League 2009 by People and Planet.

TransportTransport is a ‘green’ area that we are particularly committed to, and we are attaining greener options for students and staff.

We encourage the use of public transport to our campuses where it is practical and have secured discounts with public transport providers. Walking and cycling, where possible, should be utilised as there are a range of environmental and health benefits to be gained.

RecyclingWe introduced a ‘bin-the-bin’ campaign in our Chelmsford offices and replaced all desk-side bins with communal recycling points in open plan offices. Around campus we have recycling facilities for paper, cans, plastic bottles and glass. We also provide recycling facilities in most of our University halls of residence. All waste from offices and teaching rooms in Chelmsford is zero landfill, as recycling and segregation is done on-site and at the waste depot. We encourage the use of the correct bins to reduce cost.

Saving energyIn our University halls of residence, we take part in the National Student Switch Off competition, where halls compete against each other to reduce their energy use over the year. Prizes are awarded throughout the year to those doing well in the competition, and who sign up as eco power rangers, to pledge to encourage the residents in their flat. In the 2009/2010 energy competition in our halls of residence, for the first quarter, our students achieved a 5% reduction in electricity use.

College PartnersAlongside our two main campuses, you can choose from a network of colleges across the East of England – all offering Anglia Ruskin courses.

We want as many people as possible in the region to have the learning opportunities they need. So we have found a way to fit our courses around you – by setting up partnerships with a range of Further and Higher Education institutions.

They all offer credit-rated and modular courses validated by Anglia Ruskin – some up to degree level. In most cases teaching is ‘face-to-face’, while some colleges combine this with other forms of learning through electronic media.

Our partners include:

University Centre King’s Lynn Located in the heart of the historic and vibrant town of King’s Lynn, this large campus boasts excellent facilities, including a state-of-the-art e-learning centre, multi-gym and sports centre, restaurant, coffee shop and children’s centre.

King’s Lynn is a historic port dating back to the 12th century, situated on the River Great Ouse. It has an extensive shopping area, with a lively combination of national retailers and specialist shops. There are a number of entertainment venues, including The Corn Exchange and King’s Lynn Arts Centre. The town holds two festivals each summer: King’s Lynn Festival and Festival Too.

Anglia Ruskin University King’s Lynn also has campuses in the historic town of Wisbech in the heart of the Fens, and Milton,ontheoutskirtsofCambridge.

The Students’ Union

The SU is here to represent, serve and support each and every Anglia Ruskin Student; we are independent from the University and exist to ensure your voice is heard. ‘Putting you first’ is at the forefront of everything the SU does and is our primary aim.

We provide many different opportunities, facilities and services to ensure that you have the best possible university experience. As a registered student at Anglia Ruskin University you will automatically become a member of the SU meaning you will have access to all of the exciting facilities and services the SU has to offer.

Taking care of you Student welfare is a priority for the SU. If something is bothering you, there is always someone who can help.

You may need advice on almost anything – from your course, to housing issues. Our SU runs a confidential, impartial advice service, and is proud to hold a Community LegalServicesQualityMark.

Our SU runs campaigns throughout the year to raise awareness of issues affecting students – from financial problems to sexual health and personal safety. So we are working hard to keep you healthy, safe and happy in your personal, social and academic life.

Encouraging feedbackWe have Student Representatives, who give us feedback about the quality of our courses. We are interested in your experiences and we work hard to ensure you are happy with the standard of teaching and assessment here. If you have a problem with any aspect of university life, we really do want to hear about it.

Clubs and societies The SU runs clubs and societies on both campuses. These groups provide a great opportunity to make friends and meet like-minded people. With over 70 clubs and societies, we hope there should be something for everyone, but if you can’t find something then the SU will be able to help you set up a new one.

You may choose to work or study in another country for part of your course, or take a voluntary placement in a community project. To get more experience of teamwork, you can pursue a sport or hobby competitively, or just for pleasure. You can also donate some of your free time by volunteering for local charities and organisations, gaining valuable work experience and helping the community at the same time.

CounsellingWe provide a free, confidential counselling service in a relaxed, friendly setting. Here, you can talk openly to an experienced, professionally qualified counsellor, in a way not always possible with friends or family.Mostimportantly,youcanshareyour thoughts with someone who listens, without passing judgement.

Click: www.anglia.ac.uk/studentadvisers

They offer practical support and advice, and where necessary, will represent your interests or concerns to other departments and individuals within our University.

You can also join a range of social events at our Chaplaincy throughout the academic year.

Personal Development Planning (PDP)As part of your course, we encourage you to engage in PDP to help you get the most from your studies and to plan ahead for when you leave university. Your course tutors will guide you through your development, which includes monitoring your progress against a range of subject-based and transferable skills, and developing or updating your CV.

ChildcareA Childcare Adviser is available to give you childcare information, support and advice, to enable you to study effectively. We offer nursery sessions from our in-house Anglia Ruskin Nursery, based on our Cambridge campus, and there are private nurseries around our campus in Chelmsford.

These provide a comprehensive, confidential range of services, including finding dental and optical treatment.

International Student SupportStudying in a new country is a very exciting experience. But we know that students from outside the UK often need to prepare for their course much earlier, and may need a little extra help. Our International Student Support team provides comprehensive information in the Guide for International Applicants, which we send to all offer holders. This Guide offers advice on immigration requirements, payment of tuition fees, travelling to our campuses, and detailed accommodation information.

Once you have arrived here, our support continues, with an orientation and welcome programme. There are also specially trained advisers who can provide information on a range of issues, such as health, and working entitlements in the UK. And to help you relax and have some fun, you can take part in some of the social trips and events we organise throughout the year.

Student information centresOur i-Centres are our student information centres – the first port of call for any queries you may have, and the place where you submit your assignments. They are part of Student Services and their staff have experience of working in a Faculty or department.

Extra help if you have a disability or dyslexiaIf you have a disability or dyslexia, it is important we understand your needs, so be sure to let us know when you apply. We can also help you investigate whether you have a disability or dyslexia, if you are unsure of this.

When developing our campuses, we consider the needs of our disabled students to ensure the right resources and specialist help are available. Student Services support students with specific learning difficulties, such as dyslexia, sensory impairments or mobility difficulties, and those who are autistic or have Asperger’s syndrome, mental health difficulties or an unseen condition such as diabetes or epilepsy.

We can offer specific practical and physical help, as well as general mentoring and tutorial support. We can also help you seek additional funding, most often through the Disabled Students Allowance.

Anglia Ruskin has also been at the forefront of a number of disability-related developments in Higher Education, including the Anglia Assessment Centre, a member of the National Network of Assessment Centres, which assesses disabled students’ study-related needs. We are also involved with the Regional Transcription Centre, which provides Braille, audio and other format materials for the education, charity and business sectors. And recently, we have set up a partnership with Theatre Resource, which promotes the creativity of disabled people.

Promoting equality and diversityWe want to make sure everyone here has the same opportunities, and we aim to provide an environment which values diversity and supports students effectively, whatever their background or personal circumstances.

Our policy states our commitment to eliminate all forms of unlawful discrimination – direct, indirect, or institutional. We require all students and staff to behave in a non-discriminatory way, and ask them to help us identify and change institutional processes and practices which deny or limit equality of opportunity.

You can read our equality policies on our website and in the staff and student handbooks.

Learning in different ways

Our approach varies according to your subject. In general, your work will revolve around a mix of lectures, tutorials and practical activities.

Academic learningWe provide most of our basic core teaching for modules through lectures, while seminars and small group tutorials offer the opportunity to discuss subjects in greater detail and raise questions in a more informal setting. Presentations and interactive workshops are also an excellent way to learn.

If you are taking a science or engineering related course, laboratory classes and practical sessions will be a key part of your course; while fieldwork, site visits and study abroad, also feature in many subjects.

Skills for employabilityOur aim is to ensure that you are employed within six months of completing your degree, or that you go on to further study, or other professional development courses. We stress the importance of developing transferable skills, highly valued by employers. These include entrepreneurship, communication, teamwork, IT, independent thinking and research abilities, as well as being flexible and able to respond to new situations. We offer seminars, workshops and individual mentoring to help you to achieve these.

Work experienceWork experience is an integral part of many of our degree courses, and employers are increasingly interested in graduates who can discuss the practical skills they have developed. We work with partners to secure work experience, work placements and internship opportunities for our undergraduates.

Students as MentorsAlongside school teachers, our scheme identifies young people with the potential to go on to Further or Higher Education who perhaps have not considered it. Anglia Ruskin student mentors work with pupils in schools, one-to-one, to offer guidance and support, to be role models, to raise aspirations and help pupils to achieve their full potential.

These relationships bring mutual benefits. While pupils get motivated, the mentors gain valuable skills, and experience of working with young people. School teachers find mentored pupils a pleasure to teach, and future employers will find our University graduates more equipped for the world of work.

Click: www.anglia.ac.uk/studentdevelopment

Studying abroadWhile with us, you could spend time living and studying abroad. You could do a short study or placement visit, or a semester in Denmark, Germany, Finland, France, Italy, Netherlands, Spain, Sweden, Canada, USAorMalaysia. It will look great on your CV, giving you more opportunities in the international jobs market. You could qualify for an ‘Erasmus’ grant to cover any additional expenses of overseas study. For more information about studying abroad, and how to finance your time away, speak to one of our Study Abroad Advisers or see page 43 for more details.

Assessing your progress We regularly assess the work you do on each module. This includes your coursework, practical sessions and examinations. The type of assessment depends on the subject. Some courses place more importance on continuous assessment; while others place greater emphasis on exams. Whatever course you are studying, we work on a little-and-often principle, and aim to monitor your progress regularly, so we can help you with any difficulties you may have.

Your assignmentsExpect regular coursework assignments too. These may be essays, reports, laboratory reports and log books, reviews, group projects, presentations or case studies. In some subjects, you will have to write a dissertation during your final year. This is an extended written project, based on your own research and independent thinking, which allows you to explore your chosen area of interest in-depth.

For science, engineering, business-related and other vocational courses, you may need to pursue a research or project module. You can choose this to reflect your own interests, and it will involve a significant amount of independent work.

ThroughourInternationalMeritScholarshipScheme, we provide scholarship awards of either £500 or £1,000 to students from countries outside the EU who apply for any full-time BA (Hons) degree. In some countries, we offer a laptop instead of the financial scholarship, which a student will receive when they have registered with us. Scholarship awards are made on the basis of academic merit and level of competence in English language.

English language supportIt is important that your English is of a high enough level for you to study successfully at undergraduate level. We provide a range of English language courses and study skills workshops to help. This means that if you are admitted with the minimum level of English language competence, you can take an English language module, which we provide free, as part of your studies.

Welcome and support throughout your studyWe know how important your first few weeks in a new country are. It is an exciting time, but it can also be quite daunting, so we will make you feel welcome and give you all the support you need.

To start with, we will provide helpful information before you even arrive – so you can begin to plan your new life and settle into it that much quicker.

Once you arrive at Anglia Ruskin, we have a welcome and orientation programme to help introduce you to your new environment, the staff and other students.

† This award applies to all Higher Education Funding Council for England (HEFCE)-funded, full-time, undergraduate ‘home’ students for entry in September 2010.

** AngliaRuskinbursarytostudentsqualifyingfor themaximumMaintenanceLoan,seepages42–43. This is a non-repayable grant of at least £329 in each year of study.

Tuition fee loan (UK and EU students) Tuition fees for 2011/12 have not yet been published. Currently the fee for 2010/11 is £3,290.

If you are an eligible full-time UK or EU undergraduate, you can defer payment of tuition fees by taking out a student loan.

The loan will cover up to the full amount of your tuition fees, and is paid directly to us by Student Finance. You will need to start paying back the loan when you finish or leave your course and start earning more than £15,000 a year. This usually happens automatically through the tax system, and you have up to 25 years to repay your loan.

The rate of repayment is linked not to the size of the loan you have taken out, but to your actual income. Interest rates on the outstanding amount will be held in-line with the rate of inflation so that, in real terms, you will be repaying only what you borrowed.

If you choose not to apply to defer payment of all or part of your tuition fees, then you need to pay either in full or by instalments.

Maintenance loan (UK students)You can also apply for a maintenance loan to cover your living expenses. This comes through Student Finance England, Student Finance Wales or Student Finance Northern Ireland, and will be available to you at the beginning of each term.

The amount you can borrow depends on your household income and where you are studying. All UK students are entitled to borrow up to 75% of the maximum loan available – but of course you will need to pay it back.

Course overviewThe environment is a topic that raises important global concerns in relation to human impacts on the biosphere, the loss and degradation of wilderness and the increased vulnerability of species. This is reflected in our course, which is specifically designed to equip you to work as a professional in some area of UK or international ecology or conservation. You will study global and regional biodiversity and the practical aspects of conservation and environmental management.

Our course combines the increasingly important scientific disciplines of ecology and conservation biology. The ‘ecology’ element of our course provides the theoretical background to the understanding of species, communities, habitats and ecosystems. How to apply that knowledge to maintain habitats, populations and biodiversity comes under the heading of ‘conservation’. Central to our course is training in the field methods used by working conservationists. Field trips provide the opportunity to practise your new skills, whether songbird survey, mapping using GIS, or an exploration of marine biodiversity – whether on the Devon coast, Western Scotland or the Red Sea.

Mycourseisevenmorewide-ranging than I anticipated; covering law and computer aided design (CAD) as well as the building aspects. So far I have most enjoyed designing things on CAD, elements of outdoor work such as surveying the quad, and visiting a house to look for defects.

I would definitely recommend my course to others. It is interesting and informative and the good reputation of the University, plus the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS) accreditation, is a bonus when looking for a job in the future.”

Particular phases of education are used to focus discussions through three broad strands: educational practice and its underlying bases; the nature of the relationships between the individual and education; and the societal contexts of educational provision.

Throughout the three years, we will help you engage with each of these strands in local, national and global contexts. Year 1 introduces you to studying key issues in education in their historical and current contexts. At the same time, you will study key influences on the education of the individual and how these affect identity. Year 2 moves your study on to consider education and curriculum in terms of engagement with difference, and education in its societal and global contexts. Year 3 acts as a pinnacle to your study.

Course overviewIn an increasingly globalised environment, English is now recognised as a world language – an essential communication tool for industry, business and politics. A degree in English as a foreign language can open doors to a wide variety of career opportunities.

Anglia Ruskin has been teaching English as a foreign language for over 30 years. Our expertise and experience in delivering high quality courses is supported by our excellent technical facilities, including an open-access language centre and multimedia computer laboratory.

Course modules will be delivered through a mix of lectures, seminars and workshop sessions. As your knowledge and understanding of the language grows, you will also develop your appreciation of the political, economic, historical and cultural background of the UK and Europe – giving you a deeper, richer and more meaningful grasp of English and its role in the modern world. You will develop your ability not only to read, write and speak the English language at an advanced level, but also to apply what you have learned within a range of contexts.

Our department recognises the importance of a vocational element in addition to the academic, so you will have the opportunity to develop skills in debating, presenting and negotiating – assets that have been proved to be valued by potential employers.

This is a flexible course, one that enables you to specialise in areas of particular interest or to prepare for a favoured career. Specialist areas include cultural studies, applied linguistics, business, teaching English as a foreign language and intercultural communication.

AssessmentAll assessments will be in accordance with the learning outcomes and the range will provide both formative (non-assessed discussions and presentations, language laboratory work, class exercises etc) and summative (unseen examinations, in-class assessments, essays, portfolios, assessed seminar presentation etc) functions. In the majority of modules, a combination of assessment types is used to ensure that you are able to demonstrate your theoretical knowledge of and engagement with a topic, but usually also include a more practical element. For example, the assessment for a module may consist of a traditional essay in which you discuss a particular theoretical approach, but also a data analysis exercise which allows you to demonstrate that you are able to apply their knowledge in the ‘real world’, and to link theory with practice.

Course overviewPromoting healthy lifestyles is one of the key focuses of public health policy today. In the past decades, scientific evidence has shown the substantial health risks of unhealthy lifestyle habits such as lack of physical activity and the consumption of too much fat and too little fruit and vegetables. We now know that they increase the risk of developing obesity, metabolic disorders, certain forms of cancer and premature death.

The promotion of physical activity and a healthy diet is a complex process that requires a thorough approach, focusing on an individual’s physiological, psychological, sociocultural and nutritional status and the interaction with the environment they live in.

Our innovative exercise and health course is designed to fulfil the need for skilled experts in the promotion of health, exercise and nutrition within the private and public sector.

In your three years working towards a BSc (Hons) Exercise and Health you will become an expert. You will then have the skills to counsel individuals, groups and populations in adopting a healthier and more active lifestyle. In Year 1, you will study the theoretical ideas and start to learn how to conduct experiments and analyse the data produced. In Year 2, the emphasis shifts to understanding the principles underlying the measurement of human health and counselling. Then in Year 3, the emphasis is on applying all your developed skills and working with specific population groups.

“I thoroughly enjoyed implementing my own extra-curricular work experience into my course through the ‘Working in Film’module.Moreover,I wouldn’t have learned about the internship I ended up completing if not for the connections at Anglia Ruskin. I spent three months with the Cambridge Film Festival and gained invaluable experience of the working world during my time there, as well as making fantastic connections to those working within the media and film industries.

The University is very keen on making sure their students are as employable as possible, post-graduation, regularly offering a great deal of opportunities to the student body to enhance their CV.”

Course overviewFilm, television and theatre designers decide the ‘look’ of any performance that you see on the stage or screen. Starting from the script, designers must bring it to life, creating the atmosphere of the location, costumes and props.

Our Film, Television and Theatre Design course at Cambridge School of Art will teach you the skills needed as a designer, by working on a series of projects. A key feature of the course is the practical element. We aim to give you confidence in your work and help develop your creativity, based on an understanding of the design process.

This is a challenging and intensive course, but will prove very satisfying to a committed student. Cambridge has a busy theatre and film scene, with national, touring productions at the Arts Theatre and the new Junction Theatre, as well as a vibrant amateur circuit at the ADC. There is the annual Cambridge Film Festival and the more recently established Super 8 Festival. London’s West End is easily accessible, and students have visited the Royal National Theatre and the English National Opera.

Cambridge is well provided with theatre venues ofalltypes,aswellasTheFitzwilliamMuseumand Kettle’s Yard. Students regularly visit the Royal National Theatre in London, both to see productions and to visit backstage designers, by working on a series of projects.

Course overviewOur fine art degree is concerned not only with equipping you with the skills, knowledge and understanding that will enable you to develop as an artist, it is also about the experience of learning within the exciting and stimulating environment of Cambridge School of Art.

Studio work is central to this degree, but you will also develop a critical understanding of theory and technique through seminars and written work. The core modules will give you a good understanding of the principles of fine art, while a wide choice of options will allow you to specialise in your preferred area. All students acquire a grounding in the traditional forms of drawing, painting and sculpture, and you will also work in more modern media, such as photography, video, film and digital media.

Throughout the course the emphasis is very much on the development of your own visual language, and tuition therefore is often studio based and one-to-one. You will exhibit your work at all stages of the course, culminating in your final degree exhibition.

Our course will allow you to develop an understanding of the wider contexts of art. Course content is informed at all levels by debates about the nature of art, how it can be evaluated, what it might represent, and the meanings it might convey.

This course is about achieving excellence in both fine art practice and in intellectual and critical understanding. The course content aims to encourage appreciation and enjoyment of fine art that will last a lifetime.

Course overviewIllustration and animation looks to the interaction between the two disciplines. At the heart of this is visual communication, and this is underpinned by the development of a personal visual language. Experimentation is seen as paramount in achieving this. A keen interest in the visual world should inform this experimentation and there is a strong emphasis on drawing as a means of exploring the visual environment. The development of sequential narratives through animation allows you to use structure and composition as a key ingredient and this feeds back into illustration work, while elements of autographic mark-making and the use of text and image, developed through illustration practice, feed into the visual language of animation.

In the first year, you will spend around one third of your studio time on animation projects and two thirds on illustration. In the second year this ratio is reversed, while in the third year you are expected to negotiate your practice.

Our illustration modules in the first and second years are run jointly with students from the BA (Hons) Illustration course and all students are taught together in the illustration studios. Throughout our course a number of contextual studies modules are run, culminating in a research project in the third year.

Course overviewOur degree brings together two closely-related specialist fields, to produce a fascinating course of study that is now hugely relevant to our rapidly-expanding world.

Information security is a real growth area – data is an increasingly valuable asset, which means that companies are going to even greater lengths to secure its integrity. Forensic computing is concerned with the detection and investigating of crimes committed using computers. It is about identifying, preserving, analysing and producing evidence that is admissible in court.

From the very start of our course you will be introduced to all aspects of computer security, including hardware, programming, networking, and internet security. Anglia Ruskin’s close links with industry, in particular with CISCO, ensure that the skills you will learn will meet the exacting requirements of contemporary professional practice – skills that are sure to be in great demand by a range of employers.

Course overviewOur interior design course interprets the discipline widely to include all sectors of the commercial, leisure and entertainment industries. Our focus is the creation of spaces in which people live and work and where they are informed and entertained. We will explore the theory and techniques of the design of interior spaces, with a particular emphasis on architectural form and the re-use of redundant buildings.

Within this framework, your project work can follow many different approaches, from the sculptural and conceptual to the specific and technical, but above all it is about solving problems for human need. It is the intention of the course to ensure you develop a strong philosophical and theoretical stance, so that your solutions maintain an integrity of reason and application. You will develop skills in research and how to organise and categorise information. Ultimately you will be shaping your own future by your own interests and abilities.

You will develop an understanding of the cultural context of architecture and design, and how the design industry relies upon the input of consultants such as engineers, surveyors, building trades and craftspeople. You will develop a working knowledge of construction, building services and materials technology, and the skills needed to create environments that are viable yet innovative. Visits are undertaken on a regular basis both home and abroad to buildings, exhibitions and places of interest.

Course overviewThe growth of the web continues unabated, as does the growth in demand for qualified professionals familiar with its technology, devices and applications. Our course is designed to respond to that demand by producing graduates who are capable of stepping into a number of roles, competent to work effectively as professionals within the industry.

Our course does not delve so deeply into the computer science-related aspects of the internet, rather its focus is more on its commercial applications.

A number of modules are available from our Cambridge School of Art to appeal to those students with more creative interests.

After an introduction into the current applications of the internet, you will progress onto future developments such as streaming media and alternative Internet devices, e.g. mobile. A particularly wide range of optional modules, from SearchEngineOptimisationtoDigitalMusicFormats, will allow you to get closer to an area of particular interest or to explore aspects of the Internet that you have not come across before.

Our HND is studied by students who are looking for a two-year HE experience (full-time) and progression to our degree is normal experience. Assessment is mainly by coursework providing students with a portfolio of designs and techniques, some online, to demonstrate their skills to employers. Entrepreneurial skills are coached for students who have aspirations to establish their own enterprises.

In particular, several modules are designed to map closelywithIBM/Lotuscertifiedprofessionalexaminations, and students with experience in industry could quickly gain this globally recognised qualification. Other subjects draw on thesyllabusofCiscoandMicrosoftprofessionalqualifications. Our department is a member oftheMicrosoftAcademicAlliance.Wehaveexcellent links with the thriving local internet community. This leads to collaboration for student-based projects and part-time work in many external organisations. Students can elect to use work-based learning within their studies. Our University is a member of the Cambridge Network and Cambridge Refresh Group.

Associated careersThere is continuing growth in internet technology, particularly in the area centred on Cambridge, generally referred to as ‘Silicon Fen’. This activity will continue worldwide, driven by developments on the web, for example Rich Internet Applications, social networking, AJAX, The Cloud etc, ensuring an abundance of employment opportunities for qualified, yet practical professionals. Some of our graduates have recently taken up employment supporting all aspects of a company’s internet operations. Other students have joined service providers as technologists or in customer support roles and been employed in schools and universities. The skills gained during the course will place you in a very strong position for securing employment in internet-related activities.

If you have identified a particular opportunity we can encourage and coach the entrepreneurial skills needed to develop the idea into a business model. Our course has a real vocational focus, designed to equip you with the knowledge and skills necessary to make the most of the opportunities that now exist within this field.

Course overviewOur LLB (Hons) Law is a Qualifying Law Degree, allowing successful graduates to progress directly to the vocational stage of training for the profession of solicitor or barrister. This course will prepare you for a legal career but will also provide you with many skills which can be applied in other occupations. Law at Anglia Ruskin therefore combines the academic with the practical aspects of the law and will give you the skills you will require in any professional environment.

Our LLB has been substantially revised. These revisions have been undertaken to enable us to ensure that our LLB is dealing with the major and current issues in law as well as being a qualifying law degree.

From 2010, it will also be possible (subject to validation) for students studying particular optional modules to also receive a Diploma from the National Association of Paralegals. You will then graduate with two awards: LLB (Hons) and Diploma in Paralegal Practice. This additional qualification will give you the skills you need to make you more attractive in practice as a Paralegal if, for example, you did not wish to carry on the Legal Practice Course (LPC) or Bar Vocational Course (BVC). Equally, if you do wish to carry on to take these courses, the Diploma will give you a head start in your studies by introducing you to a number of the skills you will need and develop on the LPC or BVC.

For 2011, it is planned (subject to validation) to introduce an accelerated 2 year LLB (Hons) course and a 4 year course, integrating both LLB (Hons) and the Legal Practice Course.

Course overviewThe aim of our course is to equip you with the knowledge and skills that will enable you to practice competently and safely as an assistant practitioner in mammography. To meet this aim, you will examine the scientific principles underpinning the practice of mammography, and you will develop your awareness of common pathological breast conditions.

Our course maintains a good balance between theory and practice. By the time you graduate, you will be able to comply with current local protocols and national guidelines and legislation for diagnosis, monitoring and treatment of the breast, and you will be able to utilise appropriate equipment to undertake basic, two-view mammographic examinations.

The field of mammography is constantly evolving as technological and medical advances are applied to clinical practice. You will need to commit to becoming a lifelong learner in order to keep pace with this change. This is a work-based course requiring that you be employed in a mammography department, aiming to attain qualified Assistant Practitioner employment.

Our full-time course is studied via distance learning utilising WebCT as the virtual learning environment. Graduates are qualified to practise within protocols under the supervision of qualified practitioners and in accordance with the College of Radiographers’ defined scope of Assistant Practitioner practice.

You must be competent and confident in the use of computers, especially email and the internet. Access to a computer and internet in the work environment is essential. Confirmation of clinical competence will form a large component of this course. The local supervisors will be largely responsible for monitoring the attainment of carefully-specified competencies. A variety of methods will be used to ensure that competencies are achieved.

AssessmentIn addition to clinical competency, academic assessment will also directly relate to clinical competencies. There are no formal academic examinations. You will complete reflective and enquiry-based coursework alongside scenario and knowledge worksheets.

Links with industry and professional recognitionThe College of Radiographers have validated onthisMammographicAssistantPractitionerprogramme of study. This qualification is not currently registerable with the Health Professions Council or any other body. Graduates are encouraged to join the Society of Radiographers’ voluntary register for Assistant Practitioners.

Associated careersCareer progression is possible within the areas of general diagnostic radiography or radiotherapy and oncology to degree level. These two routes are naturally attractive to mammographic practitioners as the mammographic qualification interrelates to both branches of radiography. Currently, progression is not professionally recognised within the defined scope of mammographic practice. Increased responsibility within the mammographic workforce may be possible within local protocols. This will be supported by continued professional development. Extension of theoretical learning is possible using generic degree routes.

Course overviewOur innovative course is targeted at motivated and committed students who wish to accelerate their studies. Our course has many advantages over traditional degrees in addition to the pace of study. For example, due to its design and content, you will gain a balance of practice-led awareness and understanding, alongside personal and professional skills and competences. As a result, you will not only enter graduate recruitment markets early, but will have the right skills and understanding to be effective in a range of organisations and careers.

Our course is delivered as ‘fast-track’ by using the summer vacations for study. However, instead of being on-campus in lectures during this time, you will undertake directed and independent study, and by taking advantage of internships, placements, part-time work, volunteering or investigations, our course will develop your real-world understanding, skills and competence in an integrated way.

In Year 1, and alongside grounding awareness of organisations, management and work, you will gain experience and understanding of the reality of enterprise by setting up and running a real business. This activity provides a useful opportunity for the development of businesses and management skills and the evaluation of theory and understanding. Years 2 and 3 will focus on the application, critical evaluation and analysis of organisational and management contexts in practice, and will again reflect upon, and develop, your personal and professional skills.InYear3,youwillundertakeaMajorProject/Dissertation.

Clear emphasis will be on your development of a balance of business and management understanding and competence. This will be achieved through work-related and work-based learning, and supported by course and module staff, as well as academic mentors.

Course overviewThe seas and oceans represent the largest part of the biosphere, yet there is still much to discover about the biology of marine organisms and of marine environments. The biology of marine animals, plants and ecosystems are all very different from those of their more familiar terrestrial counterparts. Rather than being ‘low’ at the poles and ‘high’ in the tropics, marine diversity is focused around localised ‘hot-spots’ of temperate (including UK) rocky shores, tropical coral reefs, nutrient-rich cold currents, ancient cold ocean basins and deep sea volcanic vents. Our understanding of animal behaviour has also flourished over recent decades and yet the discipline still presents many challenges and is set to provide some of the major scientific breakthroughs of the 21st century. There has never been a more exciting and important timetobeastudentofMarineBiologyandAnimal Behaviour.

Rather than being ‘low’ at the poles and ‘high’ in the tropics, marine diversity is focused around localised ‘hot-spots’ of temperate (including UK) rocky shores, tropical coral reefs, nutrient-rich cold currents, ancient cold ocean basins and deep sea volcanic vents. Few of us are unaware of the threats to wildlife and the urgent need for the conservation of species and their habitats. While most of us have not been to the wildest places on earth, in the modern world we learn about remote places and we care about the future of these places and the creatures that live there. There is also a great deal of commitment in the UK to securing the future of British wildlife and habitat. Wildlife Biology studies the management of populations of wild animals, essential for conservation.

Course overviewThe overall aim of our course is to provide you with the practical skills to combine knowledge of the habitats and species around you in the natural world, alongside the study of animal behaviour.

Our course in natural history was the first of its kind in the UK. It was designed to bring together taxonomic and observational skills – in the way that was so effectively utilised by earlier generations of natural historians like Gilbert White and even Charles Darwin. Darwin wrote of his days in Cambridge when learning about beetles, ‘No pursuit at Cambridge was followed with nearly so much eagerness or gave me so much pleasure as collecting beetles... I can remember the exact appearance of certain posts, old trees and banks where I made a good capture’.

Our understanding of the behaviour of other animals has flourished over recent decades. Yet the discipline still presents many challenges and is set to provide some of the major scientific breakthroughs of the 21st century. There has never been a more exciting and important time to be a student of animal behaviour. Our course at Anglia Ruskin is the longest-established degree course in animal behaviour in the UK and attracts students from throughout Europe.

You will gain a thorough understanding of how and why animals behave in the ways they do and learn how this knowledge can be applied in areas such as the management and conservation of wild and domesticated animals. You will also acquire the skills needed to carry out your own investigations in order to contribute to future discoveries.

Course overviewOur degree delivers a challenging and rewarding course of study in a fascinating and important field. As conservation and ecological issues continue to rise to the top of the public agenda, it is also a highly-relevant topic.


Our ecology and conservation course combines the increasingly important scientific disciplines of ecology and conservation biology. The ‘ecology’ provides the theoretical background to the understanding of species, communities, habitats and ecosystems. The question of how to apply that knowledge to maintain habitats, populations and biodiversity comes under the heading of ‘conservation’. Central to our course is training in the field methods used by working conservationists. You will study the changing UK countryside. The diversity of habitats around Cambridge provides the opportunity to study fens, heaths, coastal habitat, and woodlands as well as conservation on farmland. Field trips provide opportunities for visits to other habitat types such as moorland and rocky shores.

Course overviewStudents entering nursing are beginning a career opportunity in an ever-developing area of healthcare. As the population’s healthcare needs change, nurses must be ready to respond. These changes may be determined by government-led initiatives, changing patterns of health and illness and advances in practice resulting from research.

The diversity and scope of adult nursing practice is extremely wide and offers many exciting career pathways and opportunities. Our adult nursing course will prepare you to take your place in this dynamic and fast-moving sphere.

In the hospital, being an adult nurse will require you to work in surgical departments, operating departments, medical departments and in the intensive or high-dependency care areas. You will also play a central role in caring for patients following trauma or sudden illness, as part of the team in the emergency medical services area of thehospital.Manypatientsareolder,andcareof the elderly is another area where you will be deeply involved in care management.

Nurses can also be found working in many different areas of the community. Community nursing teams provide high-quality professional care to the large number of patients cared for in their own home. Practice nurses are part of the team at the local GP surgery. Nurses also work in industry and commerce, providing health screening and support for the workforce.

Course overviewStudents entering nursing are beginning a career opportunity in an ever-developing area of healthcare. As the population’s healthcare needs change, nurses must be ready to respond. These changes may be determined by government-led initiatives, changing patterns of health and illness and advances in practice resulting from research. Nurses work within an inter-professional framework, liaising with other professionals to provide the best possible care for patients and clients.

One in four of us will experience a mental health problem in our lifetime, and mental health nurses play a vital role in the management and recovery of those needing care. Along with general skills of communication, mental health nurses also develop specialist skills required when working with vulnerable groups, such as how to interact with people hearing voices, and working with children and young people with mental health issues. The unique nature of mental health nursing also poses significant legal and ethical responsibilities which are not to be found in other areas of healthcare. A mental health nurse also helps to meet the needs of mental health clients/users and their carers both in community and in-patient care settings.

To be effective as a mental health nurse, you will have to learn to work in partnership with mental health users and as a member of a multidisciplinary team. In this way, you enable clinical practice to reflect the diversity of the belief systems and cultural expectations of people, who use mental health services. One of the aims of being a mental health nurse is to enhance and promote efficient and effective practice that is evidence-based.

You will need to know how to minimise the impact of illness or hospital admission on a child, which will mean working in very close partnerships with parents, families and/or carers.

Children’s nursing students learn to recognise the influence that environmental, social, cultural and developmental factors have on the child’s health. You will learn to combine these with the recognition that child-rearing practices vary and that children have individual needs. The Anglia Ruskin nursing course considers all these aspects.

“Before applying, I attended an Anglia Ruskin Open Day to try to get some answers! I was impressed with the knowledge of the staff. They were approachable and the openness with which they talked about the course was refreshing. They were able to give me a good idea of what to expect from the course and explained that it was common for people from all sorts of careers to express an interest in nursing.

I enjoy being out in practice the most. Working alongside children and their parents is rewarding and challenging in equal measure. No two shifts are the same and there is always something new to learn. As a student you are in a good position – there will be times when you can stand back and learn through observing qualified staff.

Course overviewPhilosophy is an increasingly popular subject at school and in the wider world, as more people realise the value of thinking through some of the really ‘big questions’ that have puzzled and fascinated us for centuries. Philosophy at Anglia Ruskin is broadly European in outlook, taking up issues in art, literature and politics, but it also offers an intellectual training in thinking and communicating clearly. You can learn how past thinkers have approached such questions, and, through this study, develop ways of thinking that are more rigorous, systematic and creative. Philosophy teaches skills that are of immediate relevance, and employers value the problem-solving insights and imaginative flexibility that our graduates demonstrate.

Philosophy examines questions about who we are, what we can know and what we should seek to do if we are to lead worthwhile lives. In our friendly, supportive and stimulating environment you will study the ideas and arguments of some of the major philosophers in the history of the subject through their own writings.

You will also examine central theories in the fields of metaphysics, aesthetics, moral and political philosophy and literary theory. Through the detailed study and interpretation of philosophical texts, the course provides rigorous intellectual training, instilling historical and theoretical awareness and developing your powers of reflection and judgement as well as vital skills of critical analysis and argument.

Course overviewPsychology is a fascinating science concerned with the study of the mind and behaviour. It has links with a variety of disciplines such as the biological, computer and forensic sciences, as well as with the humanities such as sociology, philosophy and literature. The common factor linking people who study psychology is curiosity and the search for knowledge.

There are a number of reasons why you may wish to study psychology. Psychology is exciting: for example, is there a relationship between psychological disorders and brain biochemistry? Psychology is challenging: for example, does psychotherapy help people overcome psychological problems such as depression and anxiety? Psychology is useful: psychology has a broad range of real-world applications in everyday life, ranging from stress, health, mental illness, artificial intelligence and human-machine interaction, to personal development, social interaction and the environment, to name but a few. Psychology offers good career prospects.

Excellent teaching backed by world-leading research: Our teaching provision was rated as Excellent at our latest teaching quality assessment by the QAA, and in the Government’s recent Research Assessment Exercise, we were the top-ranked Psychology Department in any of the modern universities based on the excellence of our research activity. 80% of our research was rated as being of ‘Quality that is recognised internationally in terms of originality, significance and rigour’, and 45% was rated as either of ‘world-leading’ or ‘internationally excellent’ quality.

Course overviewThe aim of social work is to provide and manage care, support and protection in partnership with individuals, families, groups and communities to enable them to function, participate and develop in society. Social work is different from, but complementary to, social care in which personal care is provided to people in day, residential or community settings. Social workers are employed in a variety of statutory, independent and charitable agencies, and also work independently. Increasingly they are working alongside other professionals in multidisciplinary teams.

The aim of our BA (Hons) Social Work is to equip you with the knowledge and skills to enable you to meet the professional and academic requirements for qualification in social work.

In addition to the academic modules listed, there is an observational placement in a social work agency in the first year and two assessed practice placements in contrasting settings of 100 days in each of Years 2 and 3.

“I’d never really enjoyed my job in insurance and each September I would feel envious of those going to university. So I decided that if I didn’t leave my job now I probably never would and decided to study social work.

I chose Anglia Ruskin because I wanted to stay close to friends and family, whilst being able to enjoy my independence, and felt that the facilities at Anglia Ruskin were the best of all the options I had.

I particularly enjoy the variety of my modules for example, studying Law, Ethics and Values and Sociology and Psychology. Looking ahead, I would like to work in children’s services, but having already changed my mind twice, who knows where I will end up! That’s the great thing about this degree – it doesn’t limit you to a specific field.”

Course overviewStudying Sociology allows you to examine the social structures, institutions, powers, and desires that motivate and control human beings, encouraging you to look beneath the surface of what we most take for granted about life. Our increasingly diverse global context creates complex social lives, and through studying for this degree you can understand more about how these lives have come about, and what they might mean today. You can gain further insights into why people live, work and interact in the ways they do, through both the study of classical sociologicaltheoristssuchasWeberandMarxbut also through more practical case-study work on specific topics within the discipline.

This degree will give you a firm grounding in the fundamentals of more traditional sociology, as well as opening up many specialist interests which reflect changing emphases and developments within the discipline. You can develop your specialisms in areas such as crime and deviance, gender relations, sexuality, race, racism and social theory, the role and importance of ‘nature’ in thinking sociologically, as well as the implications of contemporary work and organisational life. You will also gain valuable insights into different methods and approaches to social issues, and practical experience from opportunities to conduct your own research in the community or the workplace.

Sociology encourages you to become an independent and creative thinker, with important critical and analytical skills to challenge ‘common sense’ assumptions. You can also enhance practical skills relevant to the various vocational paths that lead out from this subject.

In the recent Research Assessment Exercise, many of our social science academics were highly rated for their research work, and colleagues work collaboratively on a number of projects as well as participating in the Justice and Communities Research Unit and the Cultures of Digital Economies Research Centre.

Course overviewThreatened wildlife is a conservation priority and requires specialist knowledge. Wildlife biologists evaluate the population status and habitat requirements of endangered and other wildlife. They know how to manage habitats and populations to change trends, and understand how to take effective action for wildlife conservation. A degree in wildlife biology will equip you with the field methods needed to study wildlife and provide an understanding of population ecology and wildlife management. You will learn about the habitat requirements of populations and the consequences of habitat loss and habitat degradation. The scientific understanding of approaches to management will be reinforced by studying the ecology of species, communities, and ecosystems both in the classroom and the field.

The course addresses the three major themes of wildlife ecology, management, and conservation. Early in your course you will study British wildlife and conservation, which is both a general introduction to wildlife biology and a survey of the wildlife of Britain. You will be provided with a strong foundation of knowledge in ecology, wildlife biology and physiology. You will then concentrate on practical and field skills through many of the modules, learning about biodiversity, vertebrate biology and how animals are adapted to their environments. Finally, you will combine your skills to explore population biology, wildlife management and conservation.

A key aim of this course is to provide you with a good grounding in scientific principles, and practicalandresearchtechniques.Membersof the lecturing team are able to draw on their extensive experience from studying the behaviour of animals living on all five continents, from the Arctic to the Amazon, as well as in many of the surrounding oceans and seas, to bring exciting examples and opportunities to their teaching.

The practical nature of wildlife biology means that a wide range of one-day and residential field trips form a key part of the teaching. There are opportunities in the first year to visit Donna Nook to see grey seals pupping, and the Hebrides to see the spectacular red deer rut filmed for the BBC’s Autumnwatch, the Farne Islands in Northumberland, the Red Sea to learn to dive and to survey the biodiversity of its stunning coral reefs, one of Europe’s only remaining ‘primeval’ forests at Bialowieza in Poland, and a safari field course in Africa.

Course overviewThe writing course at Anglia Ruskin is aimed at students who wish to develop their creativity and communication skills while gaining an academic qualification.

Our course is distinctive in its dual emphasis on creative writing and professional writing, enabling you to learn a wider range of techniques and offering you a broader base of experience from which to draw inspiration. For example, at Year 1 the main core module introduces you to short fiction, poetry and scriptwriting, and is complemented by another which provides an introduction to non-fiction. At Year 1 we also teach you how to get the most from language and from yourself on the course, covering grammar, workshop skills, and critical evaluation. In Years 2 and 3 you will take modules specialising in different genres of writing. You are encouraged to study a minor subject to enrich your writing and expand the range of skills with which you will graduate. MinorsubjectsofferedareEnglishliterature, film studies and English language.

Course overviewA search on the internet for ‘famous zoologists’ brings up Charles Darwin, Dian Fossey, Jane Goodall, David Attenborough and Richard Dawkins, to name but a few of the people whose lives have been shaped by a desire to study and to understand the many and varied aspects of animal life.

Zoology is the study of animals. It is a broad discipline, ranging from invertebrate biology to vertebrate physiology, ecology and behaviour. To understand animal life, zoologists are also interested in related subjects such as cell biology and genetics. Undergraduates studying zoology at Anglia Ruskin have the opportunity to specialise in areas such as animal behaviour, ecology and conservation, natural history or wildlife biology. Zoology graduates can become natural history film-makers; researchers or research technicians; laboratory managers; teachers; nature reserve managers; or government advisers.

Module guideYear 1 core modules•CoreBiology•Biomeasurement•BritishWildlifeandConservation•Ecology•IntroductiontoAnimalBehaviourandWelfare•IntroductiontoMarineBiology•AnimalFormandFunction

Year 2 core modules•Parasitology•VertebrateBiology•InvertebrateBiology•PracticalBiology•PreparationforResearch

Year 3 core modules•Mammalogy•BiologicalConservation•UndergraduateProject

AssessmentThis course uses a wide range of methods of assessment, including essays, practical reports, computer-based assessments, presentations, debates, classroom or laboratory-based tests, reviews of scientific papers and examinations. The weighting of different assessment methods varies between modules and levels of study.

Links with industry and professional recognitionZoology graduates are eligible to apply for membership of the Institute of Biology, and to become Fellows of the Zoological Society of London.

Associated careersThe zoology course is designed to provide you with the specialised skills required to work as a professional in a wide range of areas relating to the biology of animals. You will receive a very good general training as a scientist, enabling you to work in the field or in the laboratory. Potential employers of zoology graduates include zoos, government agencies, environmental consultancies, wildlife conservation organisations, and educational and research establishments. Our course may also lead to further postgraduate study and a research career. Previous zoology graduates from Anglia Ruskin have gone on to find jobs with the RSPB, with leading zoos, with local wildlife trusts and with fieldwork and research teams in locations ranging from Costa Rica to Africa.

Entry requirements

At Anglia Ruskin, we assess everyone on individual merit and ability, taking into account many factors. We look not only at your academic achievements, interests and aptitude, but also your commitment, motivation, work experience and references.

We review your application in terms of your ability to benefit from, and meet the demands of, the course for which you are applying. If you have previously studied with us or at another Higher Education institution, we will also take your academic record into account. Many courses have specific entry requirements (see the course pages for these). The offers we make to applicants are usually based on the UCAS tariff points system.

Points can be collected from the following qualifications:A Level or equivalent Normally, we will expect you to have undertaken at least two years of successful post-16 study. For entry to an honours degree course, we look for at least two passes at A Level, or equivalent, and three other subjects at GCSE grade C or above.

AS Levels (GCE/VCE) You may not count the same or similar qualifications twice. For example, points for an AS Level will be included in the points for the full A Level in the same subject. You can apply if you are studying AS Levels, but we do not normally make offers on the basis of AS Levels alone – and we do not generally accept two AS Levels as equivalent to an A Level.

BTEC Award, Certificate and Diplomas For most courses we are happy to consider your BTEC Award (6 units), Certificate (12 units), or Diploma (18 units).

14–19 Diplomas and the Extended Project We will be happy to consider applications from holders of the new Level 3 Diplomas. Anglia Ruskin University values the Extended Project and its role in preparing students for a successful Higher Education experience. We welcome the Extended Project as part of the Diploma programme, and also welcome the Extended Project from students with GCE A Levels.

Cambridge Pre-U We are happy to accept UCAS tariff points from the Cambridge Pre-U award.

Access to HE Diploma For most courses we will consider applicants with the Access to HE Diploma.

Key skills We value key skills, but we do not make them mandatory, so tell us about your wider key skills in your personal statement. If your offer does indicate that key skills points can be counted towards the offer requirements, each key skill at Level 3 is calculated as 20 UCAS points.

Advanced Extension Qualification This is not essential for any of our courses but, in some very high-demand courses, this qualification may provide an advantage and help us to choose between applicants.

Other qualifications We are happy to consider other qualifications including amongst others: an International Baccalaureate, Irish Higher Leaving Certificate, Scottish Highers or Advanced Highers.

International (non-EU) applicants Please see pages 254–255 or call +44 (0)1223 698609.

Your offer Your offer of a place will make it clear which qualifications you need. You can combine points from different qualifications, e.g. A Level and BTEC.

The UCAS website has a full version of the tariff, which now includes a number of qualifications in addition to GCE A Levels and BTEC Nationals.

How to applyIf you are applying for a full-time Honours Degree, Foundation Degree, HND or Foundation Course, this section tells you how to do it.Please note that there is a different application process for some courses. You will find details of these in the course entries section of this prospectus.

How to applyFirst, check the course you want is available The full and current course availability is on the UCAS website and it is best to check this before you go any further.

Click: www.ucas.com

To apply to study for a full-time Higher Education course at any UK university or college, you need to go through UCAS. Go to www.ucas.com and click on ‘Apply’ to use the online application system.

The application fee is £19 sterling for more than one choice, or £9 for a single choice. Depending on your circumstances, there are some slight differences to the way UCAS receives your application. There is lots of useful information about how to apply on the UCAS website.

Click: www.ucas.com/students

If you are a student at a school or college registered with UCAS All UK schools and colleges (and a small number overseas) are registered with UCAS to manage their students’ applications. You will need to obtain a ‘buzzword’ from your tutor or careers adviser, which you will use when you register with UCAS. This identifies the organisation you are applying from, and allows your referee to attach your reference. Once you have completed your application, you give it to your referee who sends it to UCAS on your behalf. You pay for your application either by credit or debit card online, or by paying your school or other registered centre, and they then pay UCAS.

If you are an independent applicant in the UK If you are in the UK, but not at school or college, you need to apply online independently. You are responsible for paying the correct application fee, for obtaining and attaching the academic reference and for submitting the completed application online to UCAS. Your referee should know you well enough to write about you and your suitability for Higher Education. UCAS will not accept references from family or friends. You will need to make your payment online using a credit or debit card. The card does not have to be in your own name, but you will need the cardholder’s permission.

If you are applying from outside the UK (EU and worldwide) You need to apply online independently, unless your school or college is registered with UCAS. Advice is available from British Council offices and other centres overseas, such as your school or college. You are responsible for paying the correct application fee, for obtaining and attaching the academic reference and for submitting the completed application online to UCAS. Your referee should know you well enough to write about you and your suitability for Higher Education. UCAS will not accept references from family or friends. You will need to make your payment online using a credit or debit card. The card does not have to be in your own name, but you will need the cardholder’s permission.

If you are applying for nursing or midwifery courses If you want to apply for a degree or diploma course in nursing or midwifery, you should use the UCAS route. Please note that, to obtain an NHS bursary award, there are some eligibility requirements.

For all applicants, there are full instructions at the UCAS website to make it as easy as possible for you to fill in your online application, plus help text where appropriate.

If you need more information and advice, you can contact the UCAS Customer Service Unit on +44 (0)871 468 0468, open MondaytoFriday,9.15am–6.00pm (UK time).

The deadline if you are applying from outside the UK or EU is 30 June 2011. You can apply for deferred entry in 2012, but check with our Admissions Office whether the course you want to join accepts deferred entry applications.

Late applications If your application is received after 15 January 2011, there is a risk that your course may be full. There are ways of securing a university place through UCAS Extra and UCAS Clearing if you are not successful with your initial applications, but places will be limited. Please see the UCAS website for details.

Click: www.ucas.com

Your personal statement For many courses there is no formal interview, so it is important for you to complete your UCAS application form carefully. Take care composing your personal statement, so that it gives a full picture of yourself and explains your choice of course.

Mature students If you are a mature student and do not meet the ‘standard’ academic entry requirements, contact us first to discuss your options. If you make an application, you will need to tell us about yourself, and give evidence of ability, skills, relevant work experience and anything else you want us to take into account.

Completing your UCAS application formYou can make up to five choices on your UCAS application form, but you do not have to use all five. If you know what you want to study and where, you can enter one choice and pay a lower fee. If you are applying for more than one Anglia Ruskin course, you will have to enter each one separately on your application.

Our UCAS code The institution code for Anglia Ruskin is A60 and the institution code name is ARU. Please ensure that you also use the correct campus code: •CforCambridgecampus •AforChelmsfordcampus

Advanced entryAccreditation of Prior Learning (APL)

We run our undergraduate courses within a credit-based, modular system, which offers you some flexibility in the content and structure of your studies.

We also recognise learning you may have completed elsewhere before applying to Anglia Ruskin. The Accreditation of Prior Learning processes ensure that we take this into account when determining the modules you must study. It is important that you tell us about any relevant prior learning when you apply to Anglia Ruskin.

Accreditation of Prior Certificated Learning (APCL)

If your previous study relates specifically to modules on the course you wish to take here, we may approve a reduced programme of study which will shorten the time it takes to obtain your award. This is called Prior Certificated Learning.

To be eligible for consideration in this way, you must be able to submit certification which shows your success in a final assessment for that course. Learning must be current (completed within the last five years), otherwise we will need further evidence of updating.

You may also need to provide information on the content of the modules you studied, to enable our academic staff to judge whether this matches the content of the modules on the course you are applying for. If it does, we can award specific credits against the modules of that course. Simple participation in a course, or an Attendance Certificate, is not sufficient.

Accreditation of Prior Experiential Certificated Learning (APEL)Where you have gained learning through relevant work or certificated experience, this is referred to as Prior Experiential Learning. You must have your claims for this approved before you start a course.

It is important to understand that Anglia Ruskin’s APEL process does not award academic credit for experience alone, but for learning you can show you have achieved through that experience.

You will need to prepare an individual case for the credit arising from your learning experiences. This normally means preparing a portfolio, in which your claim is justified in detail and supported by relevant evidence. You then submit this portfolio to us for assessment and the possible award of academic credit. You may be able to use other methods of assessment of evidence, but you will need to discuss them with the appropriate Admissions Tutor.

1.1 The Students’ Union shall have a written constitution.

1.2 The constitution shall be subject to the approval of the Board of Governors on establishment, at the time of any change and at a date not more than five years from the prior review.

2 Membership of the Students’ Union

2.1 On enrolment at Anglia Ruskin University, students shall become members of the Students’ Union.
