what about the books? if i buy them how much will they cost? can i buy second hand books?

You can either borrow from the library or use e-books instead of buying them .

You need not buy any books. The course curriculum is not based on any text book.

If you study as a UK postgraduate student, most of the work you do will be on your own initiative, which really develops your thinking and research skills. On taught courses, postgraduate tutors and lecturers provide the framework of the course, but you are encouraged to pursue your own interests. W
