Accessing personal and academic support
Throughout your study, you will have access to both academic and personal support. Because of the close working relationship between student and first-study teacher, your first-study teacher will probably be your primary source of formal personal support.
Your head of department will also provide valuable advice and guidance when needed, and you will also be allocated a personal tutor for the duration of your course.
Furthermore, each department normally nominates a senior student to act as a student mentor, giving advice and support to fellow students. Your academic progress will be monitored by your module tutors and module co-ordinators, with whom you can book appointments as and when needed. You will also have a year tutor who can provide advice on course matters through meetings with all the students in your year.
