SUBJECT CHALLENGES

Our academics from a range of areas have put together a thought-provoking subject challenge so that you can get inspired and excited about what you'll be learning in the year ahead.

These subject challenges are an informal way for you to get to know your subject a little better and engage with your learning community ahead of joining us in September. Click on your Department and choose your course to check out your subject challenge.
