Applied Course through Multimedia Distance Learning
There are two versions of the Advanced Writing course: the ‘independent individual course’ (3 to 6 months) and the ‘individual course for master’s or doctoral students’ (12 to 24 months). The different admission criteria, syllabus structures and fees for these two courses are explained below.
Independent Individual Course (3 to 6 months)
This course is available to all those who have successfully completed
the short course, ‘Professional English’, achieving a mark of 60%
or higher. The ‘Advanced Writing Skills’ short course gives you the opportunity to apply
yourself in attaining higher levels of skill in accurate and correct writing.
It is based on practical hands-on development, relying predominantly on
the close interaction between lecturer and student. For more information,
please see the full MDL information document.
The course is available to any person in any country. You may register online at any time. The step-by-step study guide is sent to you online (as PDF) upon payment of the full tuition fee. The general international fee for 2012 is £385.00. The course should take around three to four months to complete.
Individual Course for Master’s and Doctoral Students (12 to 24
months)
This course is available to all master’s or doctoral students (at any
higher education institution) who have already successfully completed
the short course, ‘Professional English’. For MComPM and PhD students
at Cranefield College, the course is offered as a further advanced elective
(with some exceptions).
You may register online at any time, and may start the course upon payment
of the full tuition fee. The administration will then provide your study guide and the contact
details of your personal lecturer.
The 2012 general international fee for master’s/doctoral ‘Advanced Writing
Skills’ course is £485.00. The course duration will vary according to
your needs. For more information, please see the full MDL information document.
