Live Chats

Join us for a live chat
We're hosting online live chats where you can speak to colleagues and students in the School of Modern Languages and Cultures and find out more about our courses.
What is a live chat?
A live chat is your opportunity to meet members of our community and to get answers to your questions about our degrees. Our live chats will be hosted by staff and students from the School of Modern Languages and Cultures. These sessions are open to everybody and enable U.K., E.U., and international prospective students to ask questions relating to our courses.
Who am I messaging?
Each live chat is administered by an academic member of staff who teaches in the School. There may also be other participants from the School involved in the chat, who will either be current staff or students. At the beginning of the live chat session, staff and students will introduce themselves to you, so you'll know who you're speaking to.
What questions should I ask?
Before the chat, you might want to find out more about the SMLC; explore the modules you might study; find out about the year abroad; and look at opportunities available beyond the classroom. Whatever preparation you have done, this is your chance to ask us your questions.

Research Refresh
Research Refresh, is a drop in and out of event, that gives PGRs the opportunity to take a break from their work, chat with other researchers, and enjoy some board games, as well as free coffee, cakes and snacks. These sessions are also a great opportunity to network with other researchers, discuss your research, and to take a breather so that you can return to your work refreshed and relaxed. Every week, one or two of our Research and Academic Support Librarians will also be at the event and will be available for you to discuss your research needs, to talk about your research, and to help you get the most out of the Library services. This is the perfect chance to find out exactly how our Librarians can support you throughout your PhD journey.
