University-wide induction

Your Welcome Week timetable

Try some of the welcome activities and socials on campus during 16-20 September. From fitness to freebies, they're great ways to settle into university life.

Join one of the SU's Student Life sessions in Welcome Week

They’ll explain what’s good in the local area, and the societies and clubs you can join. Basically how to make the most of student life!

Join one of the mandatory Student Essentials sessions in Welcome Week

These are a warm welcome and introduction to different faces you’ll see at the university, plus essential info about support services, health and safety, the code of conduct, and ID cards.

Complete the two mandatory Learning Modules online

They’re about SMU’s safe and supportive environment for our students, staff, and visitors. These values of Inclusiveness, Generosity of Spirit, Respect, and Excellence set the tone for how we all behave as a community.

 

About your programme

Module information

You’ll complete your course one block or ‘semester’ at a time. In each semester you’ll study modules. Some are core modules you have to take – others you’ll be able to choose between when you arrive, personalising the course to your interests.

Further information about the structure of your course can be found within the programme specification document.

Resources

Once you’re registered, you can loan textbooks and other resources from our library. We have plenty of copies of key texts, though some students choose to buy their own.

We’ll let you know more in our induction sessions. Plus how to use our online learning environment Moodle – where you can access, lecture recordings, copies of lecture slides, handouts, further reading, and interactive resources.
