 The aim of this event is to allow SWAP students to get a better idea of what degree level study is like and a realistic understanding of the skills and attributes you will need in order to gain entry to and succeed at university.

 ·         Skills and expectations for degree level study

·         The importance of numeracy for nursing

·         Practical skills session in the Clinical Skills teaching area

·         Effective note-taking

·         Sample 1st year university lecture
