We have a very active , which I strongly encourage you to join. Being fully involved may require work and commitment on your part, but the more you put into your time here, the more you鈥檒l get out of it.
I recommend that you attend all lectures, seminars, and as many extra-curricular events as you can. More generally, I hope that you will make the most of your time at 果冻传媒 by taking an active part in the life of the department. I also want to invite you to work with us to develop and improve our programmes, for example by engaging with our Staff-Student Liaison Committee (SSLC). We aim to work in partnership with our students to make your time with us as intellectually fulfilling as possible and we very much welcome and value your feedback.

I hope that you don鈥檛 encounter any problems whilst you are here, but if you do, then please don鈥檛 hesitate to contact your personal tutor, another member of academic staff, or the Department鈥檚 administrative team.
In the meantime, I hope that you have a fun and rewarding year!
