Each module has a module leader or convenor, and each module generally has at least one "office hour" per week allocated during the teaching semester, during which students can meet with the module leader. Before travelling any distance, you should always arrange an appointment with the particular academic staff member by email or phone. Information about academic staff "office hours" will be available once term starts.
