Subject-Specific Experience Days
A unique opportunity to spend a day on campus and experience first-hand what it is like to study as a student in one of specialist subject areas.
Our Subject-Specific Experience Days give you the opportunity to come onto campus and experience a day in the life of a Newcastle University student.
Activities on the day may include:
- learn about student life from a recent graduate
- support with the admissions process
- interactive practical activities
A typical day will encompass a mixture of lectures and practical activities, allowing you to see our state-of-the-art facilities first-hand. There will also be the opportunity to speak to academic staff and current students to ask them any questions you may have about studying at Newcastle University.
Experience Days are open to students in year 12 or the first year of college.
Extremely impactful day, really enjoyed it!
