During Induction Week, make sure you follow your course induction schedule below. This must take priority over any other events. Most of these induction events will be on campus but there may be additional online events that you will need to attend or watch.
While most of these activities won’t change, there could be small changes to timings and locations, so make sure to check back here regularly for any updates.
Don’t forget to complete your online enrolment.
Induction schedule
If you are a student taking a joint honours degree you will need to also look at the induction schedule for your other subject. Joint honours students will need to attend the Subject Welcome and taster sessions for BOTH of their courses. If your schedules show two different times for the School welcome session you need only attend one of these.
