The University is adhering to
government guidance relating to COVID-secure operation. For this
reason, modules are being delivered in a variety of formats, with much content
delivered online, either in an interactive manner (i.e. requiring participation
at the allotted times), or sometimes in a passive manner (i.e. you may be able
to conduct some of the study outside of the typical taught hours of 09:00–17:00).
Some sessions, particularly clinical assessments, will continue to be delivered face-to-face with appropriate risk-mitigating measures in place. Others may allow you the option of attending face-to-face or synchronously engaging on-line with peers who attend face-to-face.
