In the academic year 2011-12, for the first time, the University will be holding an Innovative Learning Week in the second semester from 20th to 24th February 2012.

During this week normal teaching will be suspended to be replaced by a series of learning events which will be available to all staff, undergraduate and graduate students in the School.

The School aims to use this week to:

• Help build a School-wide community through the participation of all members of the School
• Help encourage students to develop a wider range of skills and experiences which will enhance their employment prospects
• Encourage meaningful contact with public institutions and groups

We have a very long list of events, and to help make it easier to list the events, have broken them into lists by TYPE of event:

• Public lectures
• Film screenings and discussions
• Seminars
• Trips and activities
• Workshops and labs
• Society events
• Conferences
• Plays
• NSS events

Please note: We'd recommend that you revisit this site regularly as more details may be available for events and also alterations are likely.
