Open Days and Virtual Events
Virtual Events
The College Office hosts Virtual Events for prospective students to attend online, usually between October and May. All you need to take part is a computer with headphones and broadband internet connection. These live-chat online sessions are perfect for those who:
- can't attend the on-campus Open Day
- want to ask general questions about Masters/Dip/Cert programmes or PhD study
- would like advice from our admissions team about making an application
- want to find out more about online distance learning
General admissions events
Ask our admissions team any questions you may have about applying to our Masters, research and online distance learning programmes. In addition to the events run by the College Office, there are also University-run events covering topics from funding to accommodation.
The dates of our next sessions for those making applications for 2013 entry are:
Individual programme events
MSc/Dip/Cert in Global Health: Non-Communicable Diseases
Programme directors Ruth McQuillan and Liz Grant will be online to answer questions about the programme.
Postgraduate Open Day: Friday 22nd November 2013
Our Open Day - which takes place annually in November - is a great opportunity for those interested in an on-campus degree to learn more about the University and College, to meet staff and current students, and to tour the facilities. Booking is essential, particularly if you wish to meet with the programme team on the day.
If you are interested in an online distance learning programme, we recommend you contact the programme team directly to discuss the programme. Many of our online programmes run virtual open days which you can attend online.
Morning and lunchtime events
The morning of the Postgraduate Open Day is dedicated to talks and events for all prospective on-campus students. You are then invited to attend our College Welcome Lunch, where you can find out more about studying in the College of Medicine and Veterinary Medicine.
Interested in a research degree?
After lunch, we will be hosting a session of talks for those interested in a research degree. There will also be the opportunity to network with academic staff from the research area that you are interested in.
Interested in an on-campus Masters?
Those interested in studying for a Masters programme will get the opportunity to meet the Programme Director or a representative from the programme team. After lunch, we will also be arranging tours of facilities on the Central, Easter Bush or Little France campuses, where relevant.
If you're not sure whether you want to study for a research degree or a Masters, please let us know and we'll do our best to accomodate your needs on the day.
