Student support
The university offers a variety of free in-house services during your studies through the Student Support team, which focuses on services such as counselling, wellbeing, and learning disability support.
Students can be referred by their tutors or self-refer for these specific types of assistance through Student Support.
Alongside our Student Support services, the university provides a range of other essential services including library resources, academic skills development, IT support, technical assistance, and guidance related to employment and careers. Our Library, Academic Skills, and Learning Technologies teams offer personalised 1:1 support and group sessions across a broad range of topics, including accessibility tools, time management, critical reading and note-taking, turning reading/research into writing, writing (reflective, critical, and academic writing), hidden talents of dyslexia, dissertations, referencing, researching, confidence, and presentation skills. The vast majority of material covered is also available online in video format, together with further supporting information also online.
It’s important to note that while Student Support concentrates on specific areas, these additional university services contribute to your overall academic and personal development.
