Headstart
New to university?
Studying at university brings a new set of challenges, but if you are well prepared, enthusiastic and hardworking there is no reason why you won’t succeed. These pages are aimed at all new students at Brunel to give you a 'head start' in preparing for university by helping you to understand what you can expect, what will be expected of you, and how to develop your existing study techniques to meet these expectations. The pages are divided into the following areas:
- How is university study different?
- What does it mean to learn independently?
- How can I develop beyond my first year?
- Who can support my learning and development?
