Contacting specific staff

The following links give contact details for permanent academic staff and professional services staff. It is usually best to contact academic staff (at least initially) by email. You may also visit academic staff in pre-arranged meetings or telephone them. Academic staff should allocate at least one "office hour" per week during the teaching semesters when they will be available but students are encouraged to contact specific academic staff members to pre-arrange meetings if they are unable to make the allocated "office hours". Academic staff "office hours" are shown on the module QMplus pages or the staff members contact page on the link above. Before travelling any distance always arrange an appointment by email or phone.

The School of Mathematical Science's Learning Café

The School of Mathematical Science's Learning Café is restarting this week.  The Learning Café is an opportunity for you to ask questions about module content, get academic support, as well as a chance for everyone to socialise in a welcoming atmosphere.

It is a great opportunity to speak to staff and get academic support, advice regarding your modules and feedback.

The Learning Café runs in the School Social Hub, MB-B11 (in the basement level). There will some light refreshments.  Times and dates are posted below:

Tuesday  -  11:00-14:00

Thursdays  - 11:00-14:00

During these times, teaching staff will be attending the Café, and will be happy to chat about coursework, revision tips, lecture material, and academic life in general.

If you wish to discuss something with an individual member of staff, each module organiser should have their Learning Café hour posted on their module's QMplus page.  

Summer vacation support

During the summer holiday, many academic staff will be away; you may still be able to contact them by email but not otherwise. You should contact the Maths School Office or the Student Support Officer if you need academic advice or assistance and cannot contact the appropriate member of academic staff.
