GOOD REASONS FOR STUDYING AT THE UNIVERSITY OF MANCHESTER

John Rylands University Library Manchester

Have you ever considered taking up Jewish Studies out of pure interest? Or as part of a degree? But you can only study on a part-time basis? Then the Centre for Jewish Studies at the University of Manchester may be able to help. 

Application for part-time UNDERGRADUATE studies: In order to attend an undergraduate module, it is necessary to register for Non-Degree Study and to obtain the permission of the relevant lecturer. Each 20 credit module will cost (provisionally) £200. As a rough guide, 10 credits represents 20 taught hours and 80 self-study hours. There are minimum A-Level qualifications (or equivalent) required. Details of general application procedures can be found at www.manchester.ac.uk/studyhere/undergraduates/. For an application form please contact 0161 2753098. See details of courses available.

Application for part-time POSTGRADUATE studies: In order to attend a postgraduate module, it is necessary to register for a part-time Post-Graduate Degree. It is also possible to register on the Single MA Course Unit Scheme: each 30 credit module will cost (provisionally) £280. Undergraduate qualifications (or equivalent) are required. Students on the Single MA Course Unit Scheme will have the option after successfully completing 60 credits of a 180 credit MA programme to register for the full MA. As a rough guide, 10 credits represents 20 taught hours and 80 self-study hours. The maximum permitted period for studying for the MA is 5 years. Details of general application procedures can be found at www.manchester.ac.uk/studyhere/postgraduates/howtoapply/ For further information please contact the Graduate School Secretary 0161 3061259. See details for the MA in Jewish Studies and the MA in Hebrew and Jewish Studies.

International Reputation: A degree from the University of Manchester has respect and a well-deserved reputation for quality and high standards. The Centre for Jewish Studies is particularly well regarded, and Manchester boasts the largest Jewish population (30-35k) in the UK after London. As well as gaining an internationally recognized education, you will have excellent career prospects, higher potential earnings once your studies are complete and your resumé will stand out from the crowd.  The Dept of Religions & Theology, in which the CJS is based, is the only Theology/Religions Dept in the UK with both a 5-star (perfect score) research rating and a 24/24 (perfect score) teaching rating.
