Part-time Study
You can study the MPhil Textile Conservation on a part-time basis. Part-time students generally study for four years rather than two, taking half the number of courses that the full-time students are following in any semester.
However, as some courses only occupy half a day a week, whereas the practical work courses occupy up to two and a half days each week, this does mean that part-time students have a very different work load from one semester to the next.
