Who we are and what we do. We provide services and support to help students develop the academic skills they need to learn and study effectively at University. We offer online resources, academic skills workshops and one-to-one study skills consultations to undergraduate and taught postgraduate students. We provide general, non-subject-specific resources and support to help students succeed in their studies while making the most of their University experience. We can also work with staff to develop sessions and resources to meet the needs of particular groups of students.
