Best of both worlds

We have learnt lessons from the past year and adapted, taking advantage of the huge technological leaps made during the pandemic - this means our programmes will adapt their delivery to create a ‘best of both worlds’, for example by being flexible in the way learning is taught.

How programmes are taught will depend on the subject nature and what works best for students. The pandemic signaled a step-change in the way we all use technology, and we’re keen to build that into our learning and programmes, ultimately for the benefit of our student community.

This means that while our primary focus is for students to enjoy a full campus experience, including face-to-face teaching, some lectures may be available either live-streamed or ‘on demand’. Our goal here is to ensure technology enhances the learning and student experience.

This approach reflects our University motto: ‘Give invention light’ and aligns with our long-term strategy to promote equality, diversity and inclusion.
