The University has launched a WhatsApp service to help inform current students about relevant news, events and opportunities.
In the recent Student Communications survey, 73% of respondents said they use instant messaging services daily. Following a three month testing period with a handful of volunteers, this service is now being opened to all current students.
The channel allows students to select which topics they want to receive updates about and the news is then sent straight to their phone.
Note that you will still receive vital information through email; however, we hope this is a convenient way for you to be in the loop and stay up-to-date.
