Taster days for schools and colleges

We have a range of taster days coming up for your students to find out more about our courses, meet our academics and grab a taste of university life.  Taster days are perfect for students in Years 11 and 12.

Our subject-specific taster days begin at 10am and run for approximately 4 hours on our campus in Uxbridge, west London. These sessions provide students with the opportunity to delve deeper into their course(s) of interest through taster lectures and workshops. They can chat with our current students and teaching staff, and receive all the support they need to make informed choices about their future studies.

Our upcoming subject Taster Day information will be available soon.
