Residential College Academic Program
Trinity employs outstanding tutors from among the
most capable university staff, graduates and senior postgraduate students. At a time of expanding university
class sizes, Trinity tutors work with individual students and small
classes. As tutors are not tied to the demands of the formal syllabus
and do not have to grade students’ work, they provide a teaching
environment in which students can obtain specific assistance with their
courses while exploring intellectual skills and specialist knowledge,
helping them fully to understand and master their field of learning.
Trinity’s academic program has four main elements:
- the tutorial program;
- the academic and pastoral mentoring program;
- the program of generic academic skills training; and
- the contribution of visiting fellows who may assist, through occasional lectures and teaching, in the academic.
This program is available to all resident and non-resident students, while students from other colleges may attend the Trinity tutorials.
