All Foundation and First Year students need to make themselves available from that date. During this time, we will be introducing you to: the teaching team, the modules that you will be studying from the following week, organisational aspects, and each other.<\/p>\n
The Induction Programme for all STEM Foundation and Physics First Year students will run from Monday 8th September to Thursday 11th September (inclusive). There are alternative arrangements<\/a> for students entering Second and Third Year. Foundation and First Year students need to be prepared to be present on-campus Monday to Thursday for the periods 10am-12pm and 2-4pm for STEM Foundation Year and Physics-based induction events<\/strong> (the Wednesday sessions start at 11am)<\/strong>.<\/p>\n LOCATION<\/strong>.\u00a0 Physics Induction events are often in the new SEE Building, but this year start in the ground\u00a0 floor Peel Building room G09<\/strong>.\u00a0 Peel Building is one of the most historical campus buildings and is sometimes simply called ‘the big red one’! SEE stands for Science, Engineering & Environment (the name of our School). Both of the above buildings, and some others involved in induction week, can be identified in the following schematic map<\/a>.<\/p>\n September 2025 Induction Programmes can be selected from the main university menu system<\/a>, or a pdf copy can be downloaded from the links below:<\/p>\n \u25ca\u00a0 Induction Programme for Foundation Year<\/a>\u00a0 \u2020<\/strong><\/p>\n \u25ca\u00a0 Induction Programme for First Year Physics<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n \u2020 The same<\/strong> Foundation Year induction programme applies for Physics \/ Mathematics \/ Electrical and Electronic Engineering \/ Acoustical & Audio Engineering with Foundation Year. Detailed presentations and information slides<\/strong> will be provided in the ‘Physics Programmes’ Blackboard space. Blackboard<\/a> is our ‘Virtual Learning Environment’ (VLE) where course materials are hosted, though the vast majority of your courses will be delivered on-campus in lecture theatres, teaching rooms, laboratories, etc. You will have needed to complete your registration process to access Blackboard course pages.<\/p>\n The University and Students’ Union will be running their own events and activities outside of the above days and times during Induction Week.<\/p>\n \u25ca \u00a0 University Welcome Events Main<\/strong> teaching starts on Monday 15 September 2025<\/strong>.\u00a0 The Physics Department is based in the new SEE Building (see the maps, and also the floorplan of this building, that are further down this page). If you are unsure where certain rooms are, then please visit Reception at the main entrance of the SEE Building. Reception staff can help you to find your way.<\/p>\n Teaching timetables<\/strong> are now available.\u00a0 Screenshots of these are within the Teaching Timetables<\/a> section.\u00a0 They can also be found on the official Online Timetable System<\/a> .<\/p>\n A full breakdown of the 2025\/2026 courses<\/strong> being taught can be found within Current Courses<\/a>, their assessment deadlines are summarised in Assessment<\/a>, and the structure of the full academic year can be found in Year Calendars<\/a>.<\/p>\n You will find that classes are most commonly held in the SEE, Newton, Chapman, Peel and Maxwell buildings.\u00a0 Occasionally, some other key buildings are also used. Here is a schematic of the positions of these buildings.<\/p>\n See also: the\u00a0Entrance to\u00a0Maxwell Hall Room 1<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0 \u00a0 and\u00a0 \u00a0the Location of\u00a0Crescent House<\/strong><\/a> .<\/p>\n Online classes<\/strong>\u00a0can be accessed via the microsoft Teams link on the blackboard course page.
