Some information for a successful start of a new term
Happy New Year, and welcome back to Royal Holloway, University of London!
The spring term of the academic year 2021/22 is about to start. We welcome all of you to our multi-and inter- disciplinary and diverse department. Our students come from a wide variety of places across the world and enjoy different ethnic, religious and cultural backgrounds. We are particularly proud of our diverse environment, and we celebrate differences, as we believe we can all learn from each other.
All students have the possibility to check our Law Programme Resources Moodle Page for accurate and up-to-date information about the new term and the modules and activities offered by the Department of Law and Criminology.
As you will be aware, we again find ourselves in an evolving situation around Covid-19 infections. In line with instruction from the Department of Education, we will continue to deliver on campus all modules that are timetabled as in-person during this term. If you are unable to travel to the UK before the commencement of the term, check for the information available at Study Location Information – Royal Holloway Student Intranet. If you are required to self-isolate due to Covid-19, please report this via the Covid Absence Form at Playing your part - Royal Holloway Student Intranet.
Unless you are exempt, as per government guidance, please be aware that you are currently required to wear face-coverings when inside buildings, including during in-person teaching, when studying in the Library, and when moving around inside buildings.
