Hi, my name is Dr. Solomon Jay, an
0:02
associate professor here at Birmingham
0:04
City University. I want to congratulate
0:06
you for having yourself a place on one
0:08
of our built environment courses here at
0:10
BCU. Our courses here at BCU are built
0:13
with professionalism in mind. Every
0:16
built environment course has at least
0:17
one professional accreditation which
0:20
supports you with your future
0:22
employability. We would like to invite
0:24
you to our offer holder day. This
0:26
present you the opportunity to have a
0:28
taster of how life in BC would be like
0:31
as a built environment student. This
0:33
presents the opportunity to work with
0:34
other students from other disciplines
0:36
within built environment just to mimic
0:38
how you would work when you get into
0:40
industry. This presents you the
0:42
opportunity to have a look at our
0:44
facilities and find out more information
0:47
about your built environment course. As
0:49
part of the day, you'll get to work on a
0:52
project from inception to completion.
0:55
Just like you would do when you are in
0:57
the industry, this interactive session
1:00
would mimic real world projects and it
1:02
will give you the opportunity to
1:03
understand how your professional role
1:06
relates to other professions. We would
1:08
be happy to welcome you to campus for
1:10
this offer holders day. Thank you and
1:13
see you soon.

What is an Offer Holder Day?

An Offer Holder Day is more in-depth than an Open Day and gives you a more tailored experience. You'll find out more about your course and hear about the student experience through taster sessions and opportunities to meet academic staff and current students. You will also have an opportunity to view our accommodation and chat to our support services.

If you have already been to an Open Day, this is your chance to explore your course and subject area in more detail and if not, you'll get an in-depth introduction to studying here.

You are welcome to bring one guest with you to an Offer Holder Day – and we provide a special programme of activities for parents and carers (outlined in the schedule below). We know that parents and carers have lots of questions and concerns about what university life is like, so we have provided dedicated time for them to get the information they need.
