Students on campus

Find out what will take place in your first few weeks at Salford. Your course induction will prepare you with the necessary information and support you need to get off to a good start.

Course induction

A University of Salford lecturer stood at the front of a lecture theatre, with students sat on benches listening.

As a new student, getting to know your school, your course and your coursemates is one of the most important parts of starting at a new university.

Your course team design a programme of essential induction activities to help give you the best possible start to your academic journey. Induction activities aim to introduce you to your course, your tutors and support staff, and give you the opportunity to meet other students. 

In the meantime, if you're not sure of the difference between a lecture and a seminar, and want to brush up on your knowledge of university terminology, take a look at our glossary of common university words and what they all mean.
