We want you to make the most of your time here!

Our Centre for Learning & Professional Development (CLPD) offers a range of workshops and tutorials that provide guidance and information on all aspects of learning and study skills.

Many students who haven't formally studied for a while find these courses particularly useful. In addition to this we have a number of other services aimed at making your life here a little easier, such as on-campus childcare and our fitness centre.

There are many opportunities for making friends within lectures and tutorials, and joining the University's Mature Students Association provides you with an excellent opportunity to form support networks early in the academic year.
