Undergraduate welcome

We have put together some information which we hope will be useful in helping to prepare for the start of term.

Congratulations on securing your place to come and study with us. We are very much looking forward to you joining the School of Geography as one of our new undergraduate students.

We believe you have chosen a degree programme with an exciting and relevant set of modules and other learning opportunities that will allow you to engage with some of the most significant issues facing our communities and environments currently. We hope that you are stimulated and inspired by your time with us and enjoy being part of our supportive and friendly school.

We have put together a Welcome Week timetable (available in early September) for the week commencing 23 September that provides you with a schedule of important events to help you make the transition to university life.

Teaching on your programme through lectures, seminars and individual meetings will start in the week commencing 30 September. Some of the Welcome Week events are designed to help you get to grips with the structure and organisation of your degree programme as well as the key university systems that you will use during your studies such as the library and our student welfare and pastoral services. Others are designed to help you prepare for your academic study.

Some of the key people you'll meet

You can find the contact details for other staff within the school on our people page.

We are looking forward to welcoming you to the School of Geography.
