Joint Honours Students
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.
