School of Life Sciences Postgraduate Taught Induction

Welcome to the School of Life Sciences

Congratulations on receiving your offer to join the School of Life Sciences (SLS) at Warwick. To ensure your transition into university life is as easy as possible, we have created this online resource which will guide you through your journey as an incoming student.

These pages have been split into key sections and focus on your preparation before arriving. Welcome Week begins on Monday 29th September 2025, which will have a combination of central university and School of Life Sciences activities organised for you to attend. There is guidance on these pages on where to find information for Welcome, Week 1, and beyond. Please read through the ‘Before you arrive’ section before your course begins, as this will provide you with an insight as to what to expect.

We hope that this information will answer many of the questions you have at this stage, but there will be plenty of opportunities to ask questions throughout Welcome Week and beyond.
