Your personal tutor
Every student, including joint honours students, is allocated a personal tutor. The personal tutor is an academic adviser who can also refer you to relevant services across the university.
You will receive details of your personal tutor during the welcome period.
Other support during your studies
The Faculty of Social Sciences has its own support and wellbeing team providing support with any personal issues you may encounter during your time here.
You can reach out to them at any time, and they operate one-to-one appointments to discuss any issues with you that you would like further advice and guidance for. They can also help you to access other support services provided by the university such as disability support plans, health services, counselling and internal and external mental health programmes and resources.
Maintaining your wellbeing and a positive mindset is a key part of your university experience which is why it is important that you inform the team of any issues that may arise which are likely to impact on your studies.
