Education Office

The Education Office is the first point of contact for all student and teaching related queries for the Department of Life Sciences. We are responsible for the administration and smooth running of all teaching within the Department, both undergraduate and postgraduate, including timetabling, examinations and welfare. We have daily contact with students, academic staff, other Departments and prospective students. We have responsibility for all aspects of the student life cycle from admissions through to graduation.

The Education Office is situated on Level 2 of the Sir Ernst Chain Building. The office is open Monday – Friday from 9.15am - 5.15pm.

A range of support services available to students; see the Student Support Zone for detailed information on these.
