Course information

The University wants all  new staff to feel welcome and to settle into their post in the University as quickly as possible.  The Induction  session will provide  key  information you need to adapt to life in St Andrews and get your University career off to a good start. 

The course is strongly recommended as it provides an opportunity for mixed groups of recently appointed staff to find out more about the University.

The programme includes:

  • Welcome from the Principal & Vice-Chancellor
  • Structure of the University
  • Introduction to Teaching and Research & Professional Services
  • The Student Experience

Lunch will be provided.

All new staff should also enrol on New Staff Essentials.
