Here are a couple of resources I used for my fight scenes: Broadsword Fighting Techniques (scroll down and there are nice comparisons to defence and offence). And a detailed pdf file from the SCA.
The sword fighting I can't help with I'm afraid. Sorry.
However, academic degrees in Britain I can do!
We have BA and BSc at undergrad level, postgrad we have MA or MS (though plenty of my friends finishing a BSc this year are skipping the MS and going straight to PhD--apparenlty it's quite common) and yes, we do have PhDs.
I'm in my final year at university here in the UK, so feel free to ask me any questions you can think of. I'll help anyway I can. :)
It would most likely be a Master of Science (MS) degree--though it all depends on what kind of Psychology you're planning on Morgana studying. I have seen certain types of psychology go under the heading of Master of the Arts (MA).
Aack, way to make me think...God, there are so many kinds of Psychology.
I think Abnormal Psychology, since it involves neuroses and dreams, which is absolutely fitting. Ha, now I have to write a scene where she "analyzes" Arthur! LOL
I'll add that the length of your degree depends on which country you're in - English (and, I believe, Welsh & Irish) bachelor's take three years, unless you do a year out in industry or abroad, making it four - Scottish bachelor's are four years, plus one with a year out. Also, something that americans seem to find odd is the fact that we go in to uni in first year for a specific degree course, and are pretty much assigned our classes from that degree's list - you have to know which degree you wanna do a full year before starting uni, in order to apply.
Adding to macey_muse's comment above about Scottish degrees - I'm fairly certain that you leave a Scottish degree course with a Masters after the four years. (Meaning that there's no option to do an BA/BSc, it's just MA/MS.)
Well, I suppose if we have 3 years at undergrad level (in England and Wales) and most Masters courses are a year long, whereas in Scotland they have 4 years... that might make sense.
