Lecturing
Rooms / Theatres
We have a number of dedicated lecture rooms in our department which are equipped with multi media facilities. The room capacities vary from 35 - 80 depending on the class size. Larger classes are catered for in shared lecture theatres on campus. Opposite is an example of one of our departmental lecture rooms.
Supplementary notes & handouts
Lecturing notes are supplemented with course specific handouts prepared by the lecturer. These are made available to the student in printed format or are accessible online.
