Masterclasses Sample Clauses

Masterclasses. Working with the Hull Excellence Challenge Partnership, the University has developed a series of ‘masterclasses’ for 16-19 year old students following an advanced level programme in the city. The Masterclass programme provides lectures, demonstrations, seminars and workshops, designed to expose those students not only to the stimulus of cutting edge thought and research, but also to contact with their peers from a range of backgrounds. Such contact increases students’ confidence, broadens their understanding, introduces them to new ideas, and gives them a taste of the intellectual stimulation they can expect to enjoy in Higher Education. Masterclasses are of 2 hours duration and are delivered at the University to groups of Year12 or Year13 students in January and June each year. 13 subjects are currently on offer and over 200 students have been through the programme this year18. 17 The University now acts as area banker for the new integrated Aimhigher initiative 18 Provision is now accessible to young people across the Humber sub region
