My current course with the Open University
This is the course I'm studying this year towards a MSc with the Open University (OU). Last year I studied the companion course, S807 (molecules in medicine) and next year I plan to finish with S810 (the project module).
"The Open University admitted its first students in 1971. It is the UK's largest university, with over 200,000 students and customers. The OU represents 22% of all part-time higher education students in the UK.
The university is ranked amongst the top UK universities for the quality of its teaching. Of the 23 subjects assessed by the Quality Assurance Agency, 17 have been placed in the top 'Excellent' category.
Courses are available throughout Europe and, usually by means of partnership agreements with other institutions, in many other parts of the world. About 26,000 learners are studying OU courses outside the UK. "
