Welcome to Westminster Law School
We are pleased that you have chosen to join the University of Westminster.
Induction Week is designed to introduce you to the University, your course, other students starting their course with you, and the staff who will be teaching you.

Course information, module information and reading lists will be supplied at these meetings.
During the week you will attend a number of sessions that are organised to provide you with everything you need to start your course. It is essential that you go to these sessions, as the services and facilities we provide you depend on you being registered on our system.
