Essex Business School Welcome events

An essential start to your academic life at the University of Essex

Your department induction is an essential part of Welcome Week. Essex Business School is running a range of events throughout Welcome Week 2024.

Studying more than one subject? If you're studying a joint degree, you should access key support through your home department. If you're not sure which is your home department, you can find out on MyEssex.

Your Welcome week will be a great opportunity to meet key members of staff and gives you the chance to get to know your fellow students who will be studying on your course with you. We expect you to attend as you will receive important information to help you start your university experience. More information about your induction will be sent to your Essex email nearer the time. Remember to check this regularly for dates, times and further details.
