New students
Welcome from the Head Of School
Congratulations on obtaining your university place, and welcome. Thank you for choosing to come to Bath Spa University as your place of study.
I am sure that you will very soon feel comfortable here, but I know that as a new student there will be times when you may feel unsure and you will have lots of questions. Please don't be afraid to ask us – it's the best way to learn! We, in turn, will try our best to answer your questions and to help you learn about the university and your chosen course. We appreciate that everything is new to you.
Please take the time to read through this Introductory Handbook, it contains information that you will need to help you settle in. As well as containing a plan for introduction week, some practical information about the university and the way it works, we have also tried to summarise some more important information to help you in your first few weeks.
Being at university is a wonderful opportunity – I'm sure that you will enjoy the time you spend studying here at Bath Spa University. I look forward to working with you.
Professor Rob Mears
Head of School of Science, Society and Management.
