xbl Posted September 23, 2011 Share Posted September 23, 2011 I will be teaching a tutorial class in Statistics 1Y on Wednesdays at 11am. It's slightly daunting now that I actually have a date and time for it, but I'm sure I'll be ok. Tutorials are great fun, I've been teaching them for years. Just remember what tutorials were like when you endured them, and try not to make the same mistakes. My recommendation is that you hunt out another phd student who has done tutorials and have a chat with him about them, just to set your mind at ease. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cowden til i die Posted September 23, 2011 Share Posted September 23, 2011 £5400 to do a Masters in Marketing with no apparent funding available. No thank you. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ayrgirl Posted September 23, 2011 Share Posted September 23, 2011 Just thought I would share that I successfully completed my Mentorship in Professional Practice module at University of West of Scotland. Go me. Not bad for someone who hasn't done any academic writing since 2004 I actually quite enjoyed it despite doing it whilst off sick (think that might have helped timewise) so I may look into doing some more modules and actually finishing off my degree 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
forehead7 Posted September 23, 2011 Share Posted September 23, 2011 £5400 to do a Masters in Marketing with no apparent funding available. No thank you. I know SAAS don't fund Masters degrees but companies might if you agree to work for them after you've finished it. Might be worth a shot. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim McLean's Ghost Posted September 23, 2011 Share Posted September 23, 2011 I know SAAS don't fund Masters degrees but companies might if you agree to work for them after you've finished it. Might be worth a shot. Has this changed recently? My mate did a BSc in Physics then a MSc in computers something... Anyway he was funded by SAAS for his Masters degree. I think it only available if you have had 4 or less years previous funding, this was 4 years ago though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vikingTON Posted September 23, 2011 Share Posted September 23, 2011 Quick question for anyone on here who ever used the gym at Strathclyde. Is it any good? Thanks in advance. It's not the biggest in the world, has an okay selection of weight machines and enough treadmills/bikes/rowers/crossthingys. I got a membership for six months in second year, it's good value IMO given the price. I may get a membership this term. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supras Posted September 25, 2011 Share Posted September 25, 2011 I am starting third year tomorrow and already dreading it. I'm currently in 5 days a week but may drop one of my courses - and take another one - to take it down to 4 days a week. Wouldn't be much of a problem but I'm already in a dilemna as to whether or not to get a zonecard, if I do and go in 5 days a week I save £15. If I instead revert to 4 days after buying the zone card I am losing £30. I have until tomorrow to decide, and because zone card is only valid the day after the saving is already down to £12 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craigkillie Posted September 25, 2011 Share Posted September 25, 2011 I have until tomorrow to decide, and because zone card is only valid the day after the saving is already down to £12 I've never known that to be the case. I usually bought my Zonecard on a Monday morning, and started using it straight away. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stella Posted September 25, 2011 Share Posted September 25, 2011 (edited) All of the total saps on my course are buying textbooks for 42 quid. I got mine 2nd hand on Amazon for 8. Edited September 25, 2011 by Stella 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmm, it's just what I read on the website. It is my "first" as opposed to a renewal so maybe that affects it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
