British Universities
1. There are more than forty universities in Britain. The two oldest universities in England are Oxford and Cambridge. These date from the Middle Ages. Oxford is the oldest of these two universities, it is more philosophical, classical, theological. The history of Oxford began in 1249, that of Cambridge – in 1348. Among the English universities Oxford and Cambridge have special eminence and they are different from the others.
2. England had no other universities, apart from Oxford and Cambridge, until the nineteenth century. The universities which were founded between 1850 and 1950, including London University, are known as redbrick universities. They were called so because that was the favourable building material of the time.
3. The division between Oxford and Redbrick is sharp. The division is essentially a class one. Redbrick universities were built to provide a liberal education for the poorer boys and to give technological training. Oxford and Cambridge graduates scorned them.
4. The universities which were founded after the Second World War are called “the new universities”. Some of them quickly became popular because of their modern approach to university courses.
5. All British universities are private institutions. Every university is independent, autonomous and responsible only to its own governing council. Although they all receive financial support from the state, the Department of education and Science has no control over their regulations, curriculum, examinations, appointment of the staff or the way they spend money. The number and type of faculties differ from university to university.
6. Each university decides each year how many students it supposes to admit. The admission to universities is by examinations or selection (interviews). The students receive grants. They have to pay fees and living costs but every student may receive from the local authority of the place where he lives a personal grant which is enough to pay lodging and food – unless his parents are rich.
7. Students who pass examinations at the end of three or four years of study get Bachelor’s degree. The first postgraduate degree is normally that of Master conferred for a thesis based on at least one’s fulltime work. Universities are centres of research and many postgraduates are engaged in research for higher degree, usually Doctorates.
