Even during the summer months, some of our students, particularly our Post grads. are still hard at work on their research or dissertations.
To ensure you get the best from yourself and keep motivated and don’t burn out, you need to give yourself regular breaks!

Here’s our top tips for staying ahead of the game and ensuring you make the most of this valuable “me” time:-
If you need to find a PC to quickly check your emails, access Blackboard or print a document, you might want to try the new Quick Access PCs coming soon to Augustine House.
