Student Support
We support you from before you arrive in Newcastle to after your graduation, both with your studies and university life.
While you are here
The University has a dedicated Wellbeing Centre which offers advice and student support for all.
Supporting your studies
Once you are at Newcastle, we will support you with:
- first-class, award-winning academic facilities
- access to our award-winning Careers Service
- a comprehensive student support network
- tailored supervision for our postgraduate students
Student recruitment and wellbeing manager
The School has a dedicated Learning and Teaching Co-ordinator (Student Support), Ruth Daglish. Ruth offers support to all students experiencing issues that may affect their study performance.
- Students can discuss confidential problems with Ruth and receive relevant support and advice. She will also offer students guidance about other university services that may benefit them.
Parenting scheme
The School of Architecture, Planning, and Landscape runs a 'parenting' scheme for new students joining.
The scheme aims to help you adapt to student life and get the most out of your time at Newcastle University. It puts you in contact with current undergraduate students who can share their knowledge and experiences.
For students acting as a parent it's a great opportunity to gain experience and develop a range of key skills that employers look for, including:
- communication and presentation skills
- organisation and time planning skills
- working with people from a range of different backgrounds
When you leave
When you graduate you will become part of a global community of Newcastle University graduates. We keep in touch with over 60,000 members in 136 countries through our Alumni Association.
You can also use the University's award-winning Careers Service for up to two years after graduation to help you in the early stages of your career.
