Welcome and induction

We look forward to welcoming our new students in September 2026. Your Induction timetables will be posted on this page closer to the start of the academic year. You can access the term dates for the upcoming academic year here.

If at any point you have any questions or need support, you can turn to Hwb. Hwb is the home of student information.

Hwb is designed to make it quick and easy for you to access the support, services, and information you need. Think of it as one place for every answer.

A Welcome Message from Professor Charlotte Rees, Pro-Vice-Chancellor & Executive

In our Faculty of Medicine, Health, and Life Sciences at Swansea University, we are committed to working in partnership with you.

We are dedicated to equity, diversity, inclusion and belonging, and work hard to provide a dignified, respectful, and nurturing learning environment for all students.  You should feel respected and supported, and able to flourish to reach your potential. We take your health and wellbeing seriously, so please reach out to academic, technical, and administrative staff, whenever you require assistance during your studies. And please make the most of your supportive relationships with fellow students.

Studying at university is a transformational experience for learners, and starting a new degree can be simultaneously daunting and exiting.  So, we will do our level best to help you transition into your new degree.

You will learn with us, create with us, collaborate with us, and grown with us, and most of all – please enjoy yourself!
