NTU IS RATED GOLD FOR OUTSTANDING TEACHING AND LEARNING. BUT WHAT DOES THAT MEAN FOR YOU?

To us, it’s about courses that oﬀer the perfect combination of theory and practice. It’s about our teachers having the knowledge and experience to support your vision and enthusiasm. It’s about encouragement, in and outside of the classroom; the freedom for you to decide your own journey, and the expertise to help you reach your destination. It’s about opportunities and connections – whether that's a year-long placement with a major global fashion brand, a collaborative project with our own award-winning researchers, or the specialist business knowledge to bring your ideas to life. It’s about a shared sense of conﬁdence, purpose and belief – and here’s a few examples of what that looks like...

RAJ PUREWAL | STUDENT MENTOR I’m a Business Management and Economics student and an NTU mentor. The scheme is about students helping students, through their own experiences.

SUPPORTING YOUR SUCCESS

STUDENT SUPPORT SERVICES TEAM We welcome students from a huge range of backgrounds, and that diversity is a big part of NTU’s identity. Our top 20 student satisfaction ranking isn’t based on great teaching and learning alone – it comes from treating you as an individual, and helping out wherever we can. (The Guardian University Guide, 2019) That’s why we’re committed to providing the support you need to enhance your university experience, and maximise your chances of success – both in and outside the classroom. DISABILITY, MENTAL HEALTH AND DYSLEXIA SUPPORT If you consider yourself to have a disability – including a Specific Learning Difficulty (such as dyslexia), mental health condition, autism spectrum condition or a long-term health condition – it’s important to tell us when you apply. This information helps us to ensure that the appropriate support is in place once you’ve started at NTU. We can also give you advice on how to manage wellbeing issues. SUPPORTING INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS Our International Student Support Service is here to help you settle into life at NTU. Our advisers can provide information and support on visas, money matters, working in the UK, and any academic or personal issues. Whether you’ve studied here previously or it’s your first time away from home, our team is a great source of advice and guidance. FAITH AND SPIRITUAL SUPPORT In 2017, 43% of our students identified with a faith. We’re committed to three things at NTU: creating a positive environment for staff and students of faith; providing places and spaces to practice those faiths; and building relationships with the different religious communities across Nottingham. The University mirrors what’s happening the world, and we’re developing a programme of initiatives and opportunities to create an interfaith dialogue. Our team’s motto is “supporting students of all faiths and none”, and our chaplains encourage you to get involved with our numerous events and activities – whatever your spiritual background or outlook.

Our buildings dominate the skyline, and our students bring the shops CAMPUS and streets to life. Simply put, NTU’s City Campus is Nottingham – in its look, its options, and its soul.
