Induction at UWS
Induction is a really important part of your university journey and there will be opportunities for you to engage in activities at a university-level, School-level and programme-level throughout this period.
On this page you will be able to find your programme induction information which provides details of all the activities you will undertake during induction.
New students are required to attend a School welcome session as well as their programme induction. We’d strongly encourage you to take part to get your academic year off to the best possible start.
