Welcome to your course

Firstly, congratulations on being offered a place at the University of Cumbria.

On behalf of the course team at the University of Cumbria, I would like to offer you a very warm welcome to the BSc (Hons) Nursing / RN programme in Adult, Child, Mental Health or Learning Disability Nursing. Along with my colleague, Jean Longrigg in Carlisle, it is our responsibility to ensure that you are introduced to your chosen programme and settle into life at the University. For many of you, commencing study at University may be a daunting experience but our aim is that you feel well supported, such that your experiences in Higher Education and in practice, are stimulating and fulfilling.

In due course, you will receive information from the central services within the University inviting you to attend formal student registration prior to commencing the programme.

During ‘Welcome Week’ you will be more formally introduced to the programme content and to the University, and will have an opportunity to clarify any questions you may have about the course delivery and organisation.

You may find it useful to access the University of Cumbria website where you will find resources and information relating to a range of services including, campus facilities, library and learning resources, accommodation and student finance.

Further information will be posted in due course about the date and time of the subject meetings for the nursing programmes during this week. During this initial subject meeting, you will be informed of detailed timetable arrangements.
