Student Engagement Team

We are a friendly and knowledgeable team within Student Services, providing support and signposting to specialist teams across the university, from before you start through to completion of your course. We want to make sure you get the best possible start at UoC, help to keep you on track and make the most of your time studying with us. 

Our team also provides dedicated support for learners who are also Care Leavers or Estranged from Family, as well as for new International Students.  

For those of you based on one of our campuses, come and say hello at our termly Pop Up Events or Campus Walkabouts. If you are rarely on campus or are a distance learner, and want to get in touch, then you can reach us via the online Student Enquiry Point or by emailing sec@cumbria.ac.uk. 

UoC welcomes and values learners from all walks of life. We appreciate that you often have other commitments alongside your studies which could impact on things like attending classes, focus on studies, or submitting coursework on time. If this happens, then let your tutor, Programme Admin Team, or you contact within the Student Engagement Team know as soon as possible so reasonable adjustments can be considered and put in place.
