The School of Technology (STech) officially opened on the 1st of September, marking the synthesis between the School of Computing and Information Technology (SCIT) and the School of Engineering and the Built Environment (SEBE).
This page aims to answer any questions that current students may have about the merger.
How will I be affected?
You should not notice any difference day to day – your course title will be the same, most teaching will still take place in the MI Building and you will be taught by the same members of staff. A more important change is the introduction of Learning Works, moving the minimum module value to 20 credits.
Will my personal tutor change?
No.
How do I access my timetable, and will this change?
Your timetable can be found on e:Vision once you have enrolled and registered your modules for 2010/1.
Have academics’ offices moved?
Yes, but not in all cases. All signs in the MI Building have been updated, so academics' offices will be easy to locate via the main pod doors on the first and second floors.
Where do I hand in work?
Most work will still be submitted to the Student Office (here2help) in MI024 using the barcode hand-in sheets available via e:Vision, or electronically via WOLF.
Where do I go for academic advice?
Simon Rose and Natalie Horne are the Programmes Advisers for STech and can both now be found in MI127. Simon will provide support for all Computing and Mathematics courses whilst Natalie will cover all Engineering, Construction and Architecture courses. Natalie will also be on the Telford campus in room SC002 every Friday.
Where is the School Office?
The STech School Office is in MI155.
What if I have any special needs or arrangements?
Lynne Pennells will provide advice and assistance for special needs for all courses and is located in MI155.
Where can I get further information?
Either call into the STech School Office (MI155), the Student Office (MI024) or the Student Gateway in the MB building.
