We hold a number of Open Evenings, Taster Sessions and Online Q+A Sessions throughout the academic year.

Our first visit day will take place on Friday 8th December. More dates may become available in the new year or if you have a specific day which you would like to bring students to visit, please do let me know and we will do our best to accommodate.

The half day visit will consist of the following:

  • Talks from our programme leads on the following programmes:
    • BA (Hons) Sports Business & Entrepreneurship
    • FdSc in Community Football Coaching & Development / BSc Community Football Coaching & Administration (top up)
  • Interactive Workshop – BA (Hons) Sports Business & Entrepreneurship
  • Interactive Workshop – FdSc in Community Football Coaching & Development / BSc Community Football Coaching & Administration (top up)
  • Stadium Tour (for those who opt for one workshop)

Students visiting will have the opportunity to hear about both our degrees in a short 30 minute talk. They can then decide which course they would like to hear more about and engage in a 45min – 1hour workshop. Students interested both can choose to engage in both workshops.
