We understand that you may have questions about how BU’s courses will be delivered in light of Covid-19 restrictions. We are currently running our courses with a blended approach of face-to-face and virtual teaching, with facilities open on campus for all students to use. We are constantly monitoring UK Government advice and guidance and are adapting our approach to ensure we are delivering the best teaching experiences.
