Information

For information about your time at the ºÚ¹Ï³ÔÁÏÍø, important updates and details about your studies, you will have access to our Student Portal

This will be available to you up to 24 hours after completing your enrolment and collecting your university username and password.

Our Student Essentials pages are a brilliant resource, with information about every part of your University life. A great first point of reference for any questions or issues you might have.

Communications

To keep in touch with your University academic staff, support services and peers, you will be provided with access to Outlook via Me@ºÚ¹Ï³ÔÁÏÍø and M365. Your email account comes with a calendar, and standard Outlook functionality.

It's important that you use your Outlook email account to check for invitations to meetings and sessions from your department. These will be sent to your University email address and may contain important links to join sessions virtually. Depending on your department, you may be invited to meetings with members of staff on Microsoft Teams. These are easy to join, just click the link in your invitation email.

Module Information and Assessments

Blackboard is a vital tool in your student journey. You can use the Blackboard app, or via your smartphone or device. You will be asked to submit assignments through Turnitin. A great video explaining how to use Blackboard can be found on our Student Essentials webpages

Each member of University staff will use Blackboard in their own way. For specific questions about online course content, please contact your lecturer/tutor. For general queries (e.g. enrolment in Blackboard courses) contact your Student Support Centre.
