Full event details

These events give learners the chance to explore some of the subjects they may be considering studying at university through taster sessions and discussion. This could be a subject they are already studying or a completely new subject choice.

We will cover areas such as entry requirements, course content (module, mode of study, assessment, placements etc) and career opportunities. The taster sessions will be delivered by academics involved with the course, so the day provides the perfect opportunity to find out first hand what the degree course would be like.

There will be time to find out more about fees and finance as well as a personal statement workshop to optimise their approach to this part of the UCAS application. The day will give an insight into what it is like to be a student at Bucks New University, including a Q&A session with current students.

For this HEAD, students can find out more about Nursing, Social Work, Health and Social Care and Operating Department Practitioner (ODP) courses.

As part of this event, lunch is included free of charge for all in attendance. In some instances we may be able to contribute towards travel costs but please contact us to check if this is applicable.

Spaces are limited, so you should book as soon as possible to avoid disappointment. Please do not hesitate to contact us should you have any questions about this event.
