Your induction timetable
Foundation Year Welcome Event
About the session
In this session you'll meet the Foundation Year team. You'll find out about the kinds of things you will be studying, and how these are linked to the research interests of the academic team. You'll learn about the four core modules, what our expectations are of you, and you can tell us what your expectations are of the programme. You'll also start to think about how your university experience should be different to your school experience, and what kinds of differences to expect in the ways you approach your study, manage your time, and interact with your lecturers. Most importantly, you'll meet other students on the Foundation Year and be able to ask your lecturers any questions you have at this early stage.
Foundation Year Law and Criminology Pathway Welcome Event
About the session
In this session you'll meet the Law and Criminology Pathway Leader. You'll learn about your two unique pathway modules and discover how they related directly to the undergraduate programmes you'll be studying following your successful completion of the Foundation Year. You'll also have another chance to meet other students on your pathway before teaching begins.
