Seminars

This is discussion forum joint between Leeds School of Maths and Imperial College London's Department of Maths on the subject of supporting international students.  We'll be joined from Imperial by Dr. Charlotte Kestner, their deputy head of Maths, Dr. Chris Hallsworth, their Director of Undergraduate Studies, and Inkeri Hibbins, their head of the student hub (which is roughly equivalent to our Student Information Service).

Our big increase in the proportion of international students this year has changed some of the dynamics of many aspects of our degree programmes, such as small group teaching, and pastoral care.  Imperial's undergraduate Maths cohort has routinely been over 60% international for many years now, and hopefully this forum will give all of us a chance to learn from each other and reflect on our own experiences.
