Taster Days on campus are an excellent opportunity for students to explore some of the subjects they may be considering studying at university and give them an insight into what it's like to be a student at the University of Northampton.
At the University of Northampton, we’re passionate about helping young people explore the possibilities of higher education. Our Taster Days are designed to be as relevant and engaging as possible, with plenty of flexibility to meet the needs of your school or college.
?? What Students Can Expect:
A warm welcome and guided campus tour to kick off the day.
Sessions tailored to your students’ interests, covering subject choices, study modes, and career pathways.
A chance to meet academic staff and chat with Student Ambassadors who offer real insight into university life.
