University Preparation
Offers a deep dive into specific academic fields, providing an unparalleled insight into university-level study.
Academic Insights curriculum is focused on preparing you for academic life in the world’s top universities.
In these academically enriching sessions, Expert Academic Tutors guide students through a curriculum that deepens understanding of their chosen subject and enhances individual critical thinking. With a focus on active learning and discussion, each session is designed to broaden subject knowledge and provide insights that extend beyond traditional classroom learning.
Each student has the unique opportunity to work on a personal project, building a skill set that includes communication, critical and creative thinking, problem-solving, and teamwork. Through this project, students cultivate highly sought-after skills, which preparing them to excel across future academic, professional, and personal settings.
One-on-one sessions with an Expert Academic Tutor provide tailored guidance to support Immerse students in their academic journey. These sessions can help them build an individual plan for future studies in chosen area of interest, offering personalised insights that align with their academic goals and aspirations.
Upon completing Immerse Education programme, students receive a Certificate of Achievement, reflecting their dedication and growth. This certificate highlights students’ commitment and acquired skills, making it a valuable addition to both their academic and professional portfolio.
The era of genomics has revolutionised our approach to biology. Recent breakthroughs in genetics and genomic technologies have led to improvements in human and animal health, in breeding, and in the curation and care of wild species and complex ecosystems. Students will investigate and describe ways modern biology uses genetics and genomics to study life, from the unicellular through to complex multicellular organisms and their interactions in communities and ecosystems.
Veterinary pathogenesis is a wide branch of veterinary science that focus on the concept of the interaction between the host (or the animal), the agent of disease (genetics, physical, chemical, and infectious agents), and environmental factors. In disease states, the host responds to the aetiological agent of disease and the environment through one of the basic five pathological processes that occur in tissues. A case-based approach will be used to illustrate these principles and enable the student to develop a problem-solving approach and skills in critical thinking.
One of the greatest limiting factors to the health and well-being of animals under our care is the nutritional value of their feed. Whether provided by nature or manufactured to meet the production and health needs of farmed animals, being able to provide suitable nutrition to animals in our care is fundamental to good animal health management. We will build up our knowledge of animal nutrition by assessments of nutritional adequacy and solving nutritional problems. You will develop the skills to create diets based on sound science, to meet animal requirements for a variety of purposes and under a variety of constraints. Students will also identify deficiencies, excesses, and imbalances in diets minimising disease risk.
Animals play a significant role in the lives of people and communities, this includes food, production, and pets for companionship. This session integrates the areas of animal biology and ecology with that of veterinary science. You will learn about the science that underpins the biology of animal health and disease including physiology, molecular biology, infectious agents and animal welfare. An emphasis will be on the prevention, treatment and understanding of disease in production and companion animals and wildlife.
This session will delve deeper into the study of organ function and dysfunction in animals. We will introduce the normal structure and function of the nervous, ocular and auditory systems, and the ability to identify the dysfunction of these systems. Pharmacology and therapeutics will relate to this session. We will apply our knowledge to case-based learning, enhancing the development of clinical reasoning abilities and analysing cases involving multiple organ perturbations.
