Welcome Activities

Welcome is the main induction and orientation period for new students starting programmes in September or January.

January Welcome 2024

We will be running activities for both new and returning students to help you settle in and make friends, including information about clubs, societies, the local area, and the free money & guidance, inclusion, and wellbeing support available to you throughout your studies.   

There will be lots of activities taking place across the week including morning, lunchtime and evening events to cater for all students living both on or off campus. Take a look at the Students Union What's On page for information on events and activities.
