Americans use the term "college
students" to mean пусто colleges or universities. Not only
that, Americans almost never say "going off to university" or
"when I was in university." That sounds British. Instead, they say
"going off to college" and "when I was in college."
College, university: what's the
difference? We answer that this week in part three of our пусто on American higher education.
Colleges and universities have many
things in common. Both offer пусто in the arts and sciences,
for example. And both can help prepare young people to earn a living.
But many colleges do not offer graduate
studies. Another difference is that universities are generally bigger. They
offer more programs and пусто .
Another place of higher education,
especially in technical areas, is an institute, like the Massachusetts
Institute of Technology. Yet even an institute of technology can offer a wide
choice of programs and activities. M.I.T. says that seventy-five пусто come there with a strong interest and involvement in the arts.
Modern universities пусто those
of Europe in the Middle Ages. The word "university" came from the
Latin universitas, describing a group of people organized for a common purpose.
"College" came from collegium,
a Latin word with a similar meaning. In England, colleges were formed to
provide students with places to live. Usually each group was studying the same
thing. So college came to mean пусто .
The first American universities пусто into a number of areas and called each one a college. This is
still true.
A college can also be a part of a
university. For example, Harvard College is пусто of Harvard
University.
Programs пусто can also be
called schools, like a school of engineering or a medical school within a
college or university. You know, learning all these terms is an education in
itself.
