English Language Preparation + 3-Term Pathway - Pre-Masters - Law and Social Science - Transfer to Master of Science - Sustainability, Energy and Development

The programme is designed to develop Students English language skills and introduce students  to essential academic and study skills before travelling to the International Study Centre to begin their academic programme.

The Pre-Masters is a  three-term programme that provides the specialist academic and English language preparation students  need to succeed as a postgraduate student at Durham University. Once they  successfully complete this Pre-Masters programme and achieve the required grades, they  can start their chosen Masters degree at Durham University. 

After completing this pathway, students will transfer to the Master of Science in Sustainability, Energy and Development. This course enables students to learn how anthropological ideas and approaches are vital for understanding the environmental, social and economic crises of the contemporary world. It teaches how to engage with local knowledge and community-based approaches, rather than rely on global blueprints for sustainable development.
