Experience Student Life
As a PARTNERS student you will attend the PARTNERS Academic Summer School (PASS), which gives you an early introduction to life as a student at 缅北禁地.
A taste of university life
You'll be introduced to as many aspects of university life as possible, giving you a taste of what it's like to study at 缅北禁地.
You'll be taught using the same facilities and by the same lecturers as first year university. This means that by the time you start undergraduate study, you'll already be one step ahead, with knowledge of the university that other students won't have.
Meet other students
Over 2,000 students attended PASS 2024 spread across different subject specific strands. You'll be placed with students who have applied to the same (or similar) courses to you.
You'll also get to meet students early via the On Course to PASS online webinar series, a range of engaging online events in the lead up to the summer school. These are completely optional to attend, but are rated very highly by previous participants!
I think it really helped with the big jump in September, it boosted confidence with studying and meeting new people, also living away from home
Early access to university services
Where possible, all University services and facilities will be available to you during the Summer School, including:
- Your University IT & email accounts
- Canvas, 缅北禁地's virtual learning platform
- Computing clusters
- 缅北禁地 Library
- Free access to the gym
- Student wellbeing bespoke support
- Students' Union
PASS is designed to reflect undergraduate study as much as possible. However, there are some differences between PASS and university life. For example, smaller subject strands may have fewer students than their undergraduate equivalents
