FAMOUS BRITISH UNIVERSITIES 1.
English universities differ from each other in date of foundation, size, history, tradition, general organization, methods of instruction, and way of student life.
The universities, which were founded between 1850 and 1930, including London University, are known as redbrick universities.
They were called so because that was the favourable building material of the time, though they are rarely referred to as “redbrick” today.
2. The University of London is by far the largest university, with about 39000 full - time students.
It was established by the union of two colleges : University College (1827) and King’s College (1831).
Later many other colleges, schools and institutes were added, and it also could be called a kind of federation of colleges, but the system is entirely dif - ferent.
The largest of the London colleges are like universities in them - selves, having many different faculties and departments.
Others specialize in certain subjects, like the London School of Economics and Political Science, the Imperial College of Science and Technology, the School of Slavonic and East European Studies, the School of Oriental and African Studies, the School of Architecture.
3. There are also institutes attached to London University as well as to other universities.
Whereas colleges within a university teach all subjects, and schools – a group of subjects, these institutes specialize more narrowly, and are often more occupied with research than teaching undergraduates.
In London University, for example, there are the Institute of Archeology, the Courtauld Institute (specializing in the his - tory of art) and some others.
4. Most of the redbrick universities founded in the nineteenth century are scattered throughout the country and are to be found in Birmingham, Bristol, Exeter, Hull, Leeds, Manchester, Liverpool, Nottingham, Sheffield, Southampton and some others.
5. The redbrick universities organize their academic work in a va - riety of ways.
Subjects are taught in individual departments which are in turn grouped into faculties covering the main subject grouping, like arts, science, engineering, social science.
6. The “new universities” were all founded after the Second World War.
Some of them quickly became popular because of their modern approach to university courses.
The first of this group was Keele Uni - versity (in Staffordshire), founded in 1948.
In 1961 seven new universities were approved : the universities of East Anglia, Essex, Kent, Lancaster, Sussex, Warwick, York.
The traditional faculty structure in these universities has been avoided in an attempt to prevent overspecialization.
One form of organization (at Sussex) is school, which embraces a range of related subjects.
York and Warwick have structures which are closer to older universities.

Higher educational establishments of Great Britain.
The structure of higher education in Great Britain is very complex.
Five types of institutions – 45 universities, teachers’ training colleges, colleges of advanced technology, technical colleges and art colleges – are the main sourses of full - time higher education.
There is also a small number of specialized colleges such as the Colleges of Aeronautics and the National Colleges of Agricultural Engineering.
A university consists of a number of faculties : theology, medicine, arts, philosophy, law, music, natural sciences, economics, engineering, agriculture, commerce and others.
The two oldest universities in England are Oxford and Cambridge.
Each consists of largely self - governing, residental colleges.
The teaching is based on the tutorial system as well as lectures.
Each student has a tutor, who requires him to write essays anti papers on the subjects he is studying and give them to him regularly about once a fortnight for correction and discussion.
Selection of students is mainly in the hands of independent colleges having special ties with the public schools.
The whole system operates with very little public control, though some children from state schools are admitted.
But the cost of education is so high that not - many can afford entering these universities.
The universities grant their own degrees.
The normal duration of a first degree course is there years, at the end a bachelor degree is awarded on the results of examinations.
A master degree is usually awarded after a further year or two years study.
The highest degree is the doctor of Philosophy awarded for research and the submission of a thesis.
Every university is autonomous and responsible only to its governing body.
The regulations differ from university to university.
In most universities students have their own ‘unions’ which are centres of cultural and recreational activity.
