Tailor Your Visit
Tailor your open day experience to suit your needs. Our open day programme will give you the details of talks and demonstrations taking place all over our campus. We’ll also point out some key areas which you should visit depending on your course interest.
We’ll send you the open day programme a week before your visit, but in case you wish to get organised and plan ahead, you can view our ‘planning your open day visit’ page.
No matter what stage of your application journey you are at, attending an open day will allow you to get a real sense of what we have to offer.
Can’t make it to one of our open day dates? You can always email us and we’ll be happy to arrange a personalised tour at another time which suits you best.
