Example course induction schedule

Here is an example course induction schedule to give you an idea of what to expect. Please note that every course induction schedule will be different, so it's important to find and follow the right schedule for your chosen course. The sessions, times and dates listed here are examples only and don't represent your real schedule.

If you haven't already enrolled as a student by the time you view your schedule, it will remind you to enrol. Enrolling will give you access to University systems which you may need as part of your course induction activities.

All schedules will be available to view online by Monday 2 September. Certain courses have earlier inductions so we will make those schedules available earlier too. You can read more about courses with alternative induction dates.

Induction schedule

It's important to bookmark the webpage with your induction schedule and check it regularly. Occasionally there might be room or time changes and you won't know about these if you are looking at a screenshot or photo instead of the live induction schedule.
