What is a tutor?
Each Undergraduate student is allocated a personal tutor who will be an academic in the department in which you are registered. The name of your tutor, along with your first tutorial appointment, will be given to you at your departmental induction meeting. The department views the pastoral care of its students very seriously. It is hoped the tutorial system is a way for students to seek advice on a range of academic and welfare matters. The duties of tutors and their relations to their students are set out in your Undergraduate hand book (given to you at your induction meeting).
