Support for your studies

Every student has a supervisor to help and advise you on all aspects of life at university. You should meet with your supervisor regularly and discuss any issues preventing academic progress as well as ways to develop your study skills.

We ask you to check-in to on-campus teaching sessions to help us quickly identify if it looks like you may be struggling or experiencing difficulties.
