FdSc Paramedic Science

Induction Information

To make sure everything is in place for induction week you must come along to the Glenside Campus on either Saturday or Sunday of Welcome Weekend. We will be able to ensure you have completed your online registration properly and check any outstanding academic certificates or Criminal Record Bureau checks which may be holding things up. Drop into the Glenside Student Centre on Saturday 17 September between 10am and 4pm or Sunday 18 September between 11am and 3pm. There will also be lots of things going on to help you settle into University life and it will be an opportunity for you to meet staff and other new students, so come along and join us! 

COURSE COMMENCEMENT

The Foundation Degree in Paramedic Science course will begin on Monday, 19 September 2011 at 9.30 at the Glenside Campus.

Please report to Reception on arrival where staff will be available to direct you to your first session.

INDUCTION WEEK TIMETABLE

Your induction week timetable is available to download.

You will be able to access your individual timetable through myUWE once you have registered, using your UWE ID number. Please print out and bring a copy of your timetable with you for induction week, this will ensure you attend the correct sessions.

IT

You will need to use a range of IT skills while you are a student with us so if you are a bit rusty it would be a good idea to put some practice in before you start your course to ensure you are familiar with using e-mail, the internet and software such as Word, Excel, Access and PowerPoint. UWE has developed a range of resources to help students which you will be directed to at the relevant time but for now you might find it useful to have a look at a recent version of our Student Computing at UWE guide.

REMINDER

In previous correspondence you will have already been informed about our requirements regarding:

• Academic certificates
• Criminal Records Bureau checks

If any of these requirements are still outstanding you really must send the relevant paperwork to us, as instructed, as soon as possible, preferably ahead of Welcome Week/end and induction.

If you indicated on your application form that you consider yourself disabled, then you should expect to hear from them before the programme starts. However, whether you indicated this on your form or not we would like to draw your attention to this service.

If you consider yourself disabled in any way and would like advice on how the Faculty can promote your inclusion in the programme please contact the School Student Advisers at Glenside who can be contacted as follows:
