Departmental study support

The Department offers additional support to all its students with academic writing, calculation skills, referencing and other skills needed for studying successfully. This support is available throughout the academic year and can be accessed in a number of different ways.

VLE resources

In addition to the resources provided by the University, all Health Sciences students also have access to the VLE Community web site called "Academic Support for Undergraduate Health Sciences Students".

Here you will find a wide range of information, advice and tools to help you develop your study skills.

To access this web site, log on to the VLE with your University username and password and look for the Community box where you will find a link to "Academic Support for Undergraduate Health Sciences Students". 

Academic writing support

Throughout your programme, seminars on how to develop your academic writing skills will be offered aligned to your modules. These seminars complement the general support offered by the University and are a good way to improve your academic writing standard within a healthcare context.
