Subject-led events

Throughout the year some academic schools and institutes run open days for prospective students and offer holders. At these events you can:

  • meet academics and current postgraduate students
  • find out about taught and research degrees
  • visit facilities

You may be able to arrange a visit that is not part of a scheduled open day. Contact your proposed academic school or research institute to find out if this is possible.

Meet with your potential supervisor

If you are interested in one of our research programmes and have identified a potential supervisor, we'd encourage you to contact them to discuss arranging a visit. Your proposed academic school or research institute will be able to help you with this.
