University Students

  Full-time university students spend all their time studying. They don't do other work. Their course (课程) usually lasts for three or four years. Medical students have to follow a course lasting for six or seven years. Then they graduate (毕业) as doctors. In Britain, full-time university students have three terms of about ten weeks in each year. During these terms they go to lectures or they study by themselves. Their vacations(假期) are long, but of course they can use them to study at home.

  Some universities, like Oxford and Cambridge in England, are residential (住校的). This means that during the university terms the students live in universities.

  Other universities are non-residential. Some of the students at these universities can live in a university hostel(招待所), but many live at home or in lodgings(临时住所) and have to travel daily to their lectures. Large cities often have universities of this kind. Sometimes the students have to spend quite a lot of time on their journeys.

  Full-time students are also called internal students, because they spend all their time at university. There are also external students who cannot attend the university full-time but who are studying for its examinations. They are part-time students. They have to do other work during the day, usually to earn their living, and they study in the evening.

  External students are often older than full-time internal students. Sometimes they can attend lectures in the evening, but many of them have to study by correspondence (通信). They write at home the work that is set by their tutors(导师). Then they have to post this work to their tutors and the tutors post corrections and advice back to them.

  In some countries, “Universities of the Air” can now help students to gain degrees(学位). After special lectures on radio or television, these students too have to send set work for correction by correspondence. However, for a few weeks each year they can attend special vacation courses at universities.
