Often, it's hard to know what to do in a lecture - being talked at for an hour may seem daunting, so how can you maximise that time to your benefit? In this session, lecturers and students discuss their experiences of lectures, and offer some practical advice on how to prepare before, during and afterwards to make your lecture experience a useful one.

Unlock the full potential of your seminars! This session will demystify what seminars are and provide you with practical strategies to maximise their benefits. Learn how to effectively engage and participate in seminars, and how seminars complement your lectures. Join us to enhance your study experience and make every seminar count.

Assessments are an inevitable fact of university life - but, faced with essays, presentations, creative tasks, forum engagement and a whole other host of styles, it can be difficult to know where to start and how to turn in strong work. This session aims to demystify assessments, presenting practical advice on assessment types and offering tips on how to effectively engage with your assessment material.

Join us in the Agora for a showcase, celebrating our students who've undertaken the Undergraduate Research Support Scheme (URSS) and learning how to get involved yourself. We'll hear from Wendy Hunt, the URSS coordinator, about the scheme, and some of our Arts students will present their research. We've got guests from external organisations who want to work with students, and we'll have staff members keen on supervising projects.

We often talk about research, but what does it mean, and how can students take part? This session explores research, and showcases how students can engage with research, and do so effectively.
