Welcome Week information
What to expect in Welcome Week
Welcome Week is one of our favourite times of the year in Education Studies. It’s when we get to meet you - our newest students - and help you settle in, find your way around, and start to feel part of our community. We’re a small and friendly centre, so expect a warm welcome, plenty of friendly faces, and lots of opportunities to get to know your course and the people who’ll be teaching and supporting you.
You’ll find the full timetable for all Education Studies Welcome Week events on the University’s Welcome webpages, and we’ve also included a quick overview below so you know what to expect.
The timings and locations of these events will be visible in your personalised Welcome Week Timetable in September.
