Learning, assessment and support

The University of Liverpool Management School encourages learning through a range of innovative teaching methods in a modern environment. We provide a professional learning experience that aims to give you an insight into real business practice.

Assessment

As part of your studies, you will undertake a series of assessments each weighting towards your overall mark. These will take place throughout each semester and will be dependent on your selected modules.

Module assessments may include exams, which can be multiple choice, long and short answer questions or essay-based, learning logs, case studies, and presentations. Students can also be required to write a dossier using a collection of sources or keep a reflective portfolio over a period of time.

Support

Additional support is available through our Study Skills sessions, exclusive to the Management School. This programme of activities is delivered by our dedicated Learning and Teaching Support Officers. (LTSO's).

Sessions cover a wide range of skills to help you in your academic studies and include critical thinking, exam preparation and revision techniques, academic writing processes, developing your presentation skills, time management, teamwork, critical analysis and report writing plus maths clinics. As well as supporting you academically, our LTSOs are also available for one-to-one appointments if you need personal support.

Disability and dyslexia support

The Management School is committed to fulfilling its duty to support students with a disability and/or specific learning difficulty. Dedicated Disability and Dyslexia Contacts within the school liaise with the central Disability Advice and Guidance Team to implement specific adjustments and recommended support.

Each student with a disability and/or specific learning difficulty will receive an individual, tailored support plan and it is the role of the Disability and Dyslexia Contacts to ensure that these recommendations are properly implemented within the school.
