University of Salford - Student Shadowing Opportunities

Prospective students spend half a day on campus with a current student and experience first hand what it’s like to be a student at the University of Salford. Students attend a lecture or workshop from their subject of interest, have lunch with current students and go on a walking tour of the main campus. Student shadowing provides students with an opportunity to witness the university teaching environment first hand and see how they will be taught in their subject of interest. The student shadowing can also help students decide whether the subject is right for them. (CLICK HERE FOR MORE)

They will be asked to help the children (age 5-7) with the art projects and also give assistance to Louise Ungpakorn who will be teaching the class.
