Hi, I’m Ronan. The Student Adviser for the Faculty of Medical Sciences. I'm here for you as a key point of contact during the first year of your undergraduate studies and am available to discuss any wellbeing, support, and student experience matters. 

Events

Working within Student Support and Wellbeing Services, we will be hosting a range of events and activities during term time to support your Social bonding, Skills for life, and Wellbeing at university. Explore the workshops and activities you can join throughout the academic year listed below, then click the event hyperlink to reserve your place.

Term 1: September - December 2024

Come along to meet your new classmates in one of our informal, online ice-breaker sessions! 

An opportunity to meet your new classmates: We appreciate starting university can be a nerve-wracking time, so there will be some activities and games to get you all socialising, so you can start the term off already knowing a few friendly faces! 

This event is completely free, and a great way to ease your nerves and meet some new faces before you start your course. We can't wait to see you there! There will be an opportunity to ask any questions you have before arriving in ¹û¶³Ó°Ôº at the end of the sessions.

Please note we are running this session twice, and both sessions will be the same. You do not need to attend both sessions. However, if you would like to spend more time meeting your classmates then you are welcome to do so.

Term 2: January - March 2025

More information coming soon.

Term 3: April - June 2025

More information coming soon.

Who am I?

About Ronan

What was your experience of Further/Higher education like?

I loved my time in uni but that wasn't because it was easy. It was a whirlwind time of anxieties and pressures. I loved it because I got really involved in uni life (e.g. socs) and was surrounded by good people. 

What do you like most about your work as a Student Adviser?

Supporting struggling students to get back on track.

What's a surprising or interesting fact about yourself?

Hmm... I once broke curfew during a coup in Lesotho (southern Africa) to move 40 kids across town in 2 vans. We weren't shot.
