Welcome Talks May 2023
Make sure to get involved with our Welcome Talks. Our talks are here to welcome you to the college and university campus and make sure that you have the best start possible to your degree. These sessions will give you the opportunity to meet fellow students, college staff and teachers. We will walk through what being a student will be like, how to get involved with activities, societies, and different services. It will also give you the opportunity to ask us any questions you may have.
