I’m an early riser, but not all people are. Some people are more awake in the afternoons, some people don’t really wake up until the evenings. So, how come all full-time education seems to start around 9am-10am?
I know that night school is a thing, but that’s really targeted at people who want to study over many years around their other commitments (e.g. a day job). I’m talking about full-time three- or four-year bachelor’s degrees and above (though exactly the same logic applies to all education really). Surely there’s enough demand for at least a couple of top-class full-time education establishments that don’t even open their doors until lunchtime?
Idk about the US but there are definitely both online and evening lectures schedules available at university. At my CompSci BSc it was more common to just not go and watch the lectures later.
Bear in mind our higher ed doesn’t have any “general” education classes, only ones related to the degree, and we don’t really have the same system of a wider selection of courses and it’s the name of the institution that matters, like it seems to be the case in the US, in the UK, if you have a degree, you have the degree, there’s no explicit difference between one at QMUL and UoW.
