Assessment method

Teaching during Covid19 This course will be taught in a 'blended' way. This means that some teaching will be done online and some will be on campus. The online teaching, where you will be physically apart from your lecturer, can be 'live' with your lecturer present and where you’ll be able to interact. Some of it may be self-directed which means that you can access the learning materials at a time to suit you. This course offers some modules taught through the medium of Welsh or bilingually for students who consider themselves to be fluent Welsh speakers. There are opportunities for Welsh speakers to study this subject through the medium of Welsh and our dedicated academy, Academi Hywel Teifi, is here to support you throughout your time at Swansea University. We offer you: -An interview through the medium of Welsh when applying for a place. -The option to receive your personal correspondence in Welsh, English or bilingually - we will then communicate with you in your language of choice. -Access to generous Welsh-language study scholarships or bursaries. -Access to modules taught wholly or partly in Welsh. -The option to write and submit your coursework or exams through the medium of Welsh (even if you have chosen to study in English), and your work will be marked in Welsh. -A Welsh-speaking academic tutor. -One-to-one support to improve your academic Welsh language skills. An opportunity to gain an additional free qualification that serves as evidence of your Welsh language ability for future employers. To see further details about the level of provision delivered in Welsh on this particular degree scheme, please see the Welsh-language course page for further information. Since 2011, there has been a 40% increase in the number of students studying through the medium of Welsh at Swansea University and our TEF* data over the last two years shows that Welsh-medium students are high achievers in regards to employability (*Swansea University TEF return 2017 and 2018).
