Our Student Experience team have organised in-person welcome sessions for you which will take place during Welcome Week. The same information will be shared in each induction so you only need to sign up to one session. You will also be invited to academic inductions by your programme. Both are essential to attend so please do not choose a school welcome session that clashes with your programme induction.
