You will experience a range of different types of teaching sessions including lectures, tutorials, workshops and laboratory classes.

Lectures are the main way that the content and theory is delivered and all students taking a module attend the lectures at the same time. You will encounter a range of lecturing styles that help you to learn in different ways including making your own notes, annotating printed handouts, problem solving activities and interactive quizzes.

Modules in the first and second year are supported by tutorials with small groups of students.
Workshops are problem solving classes where questions are set for you to attempt. Typically run in groups of 20-40 students, these provide opportunities for you to work with your peers as well as ask questions and get assistance from academic staff and teaching assistants on hand.

Classes in our state-of-the-art undergraduate labs will form an integral part of your learning. You will carry out experiments individually with a laboratory demonstrators supporting your small group to help you learn the practical techniques and guide your understanding. Many of our practicals are unique and innovative because they have been designed by our academic researchers. All the equipment that you need is provided free, including your laboratory coat, book and glasses, and we have never charged for breakages so you can learn in a stress-free environment.

All of the teaching and learning activities are accessible through the virtual learning environment (VLE). Each module has its own area containing module information, contacts for teaching staff, lecture notes, tutorial and workshop questions, recordings, forums and often interactive quizzes. Your modules spaces stay with you throughout your time at Warwick so you can always access information and feedback from previous years.
