We're here to help!
Have a question? Not sure where to turn for support? Want to give feedback about modules or programmes? We want to hear from you!
Both the University and the School of Politics, Economics, and International Relations have a range of resources, sources of support, and ways to ask questions and provide feedback anonymously or confidentially for students.
Please download this guide for details about who to contact for help with a variety of issues.
Universities use a lot of terms and words you may not have encountered before, so we’ve put together a jargon buster to help you navigate them. You can download it here. And of course, never hesitate to just ask!
