Welcome to the University of Surrey The Surrey Business School and the School of Hospitality and Tourism Management 2014-15
Welcome to the Surrey Business School and the School of Hospitality
and Tourism Management.
Congratulations and welcome! You’ve joined an exciting and dynamic academic community. We are very
pleased you’ve chosen The University of Surrey and in particular the Surrey Business School and the School
of Hospitality and Tourism Management as the host for your study abroad.
This handbook has been designed specifically for incoming exchange students joining the Surrey Business
School and the School of Hospitality and Tourism Management and is intended to be a guide to your first
few weeks here as well as providing information on academic matters and other more general information
which will apply throughout your stay. Further information about preparing for exchange can be found in
the Exchange Student Guide. More detailed information on the University in general and academic
regulations can be found in the Undergraduate Handbook.

Background
The Surrey Business School is the new title for the business and accounting section of the previous School
of Management, which comprised programmes in business, hospitality and tourism management.
Undergraduate management degrees have been taught since the University was first chartered in 1967. It
started with the hospitality management programme (IHM), which is now complemented by specialist
degrees for tourism (TM) and retail (RM), along with a hybrid hospitality and tourism stream (IHTM). In
2001, the School launched the successful BSc (Hons) Business Management (BM) programme followed by
the BSc (Hons) in Accounting & Financial Management programme in 2007.
The Schools also offer a range of postgraduate management programmes leading to MSc awards. These
cover a range of generic MSc programmes in Management e.g. Marketing Management, Human Resource
Management, International Financial Management alongside the Masters of Business Administration
(MBA) programme. There are sector based programmes at MSc level too covering hospitality, tourism,
retail, leisure, healthcare and food. In addition, there are over 50 students on the School’s PhD programme.
Teaching in the Schools was graded as ‘excellent’ in the most recent external audit. Staff actively pursues
research in their own areas of subject expertise alongside supporting learning and teaching. They are fully
research informed in preparing the learning and teaching deliveries and many of their research publications
will be useful in your undergraduate study.

Arrival & Orientation
Students arriving in the autumn are able to take part in Welcome Week which takes place from the
29th September 2014 and is open to all students. The Welcome Week programme is designed to help you
find out more about the University, make sure you officially register, obtain your campus card, activate your
IT account and provide an opportunity to meet other students.
Welcome Week is open to all but there are some events which are organised specifically for exchange
students. You will find these events detailed in the orientation programme.
Students visiting us in the second semester (spring) will be able to take part in an orientation programme
organised by the IRO (International Relations Office). Students are usually able to arrive on campus a few
days before the start of teaching and will be able to register, obtain their campus cards and meet with other
students. Further details will be sent to students in January via email.
Registration takes place in Welcome Week for students arriving in the autumn and before the start of
teaching for students arriving in the spring. Details of where and when you need to register can be found on
your orientation programme which will be sent to you by email before the start of the semester.
Welcome to the University of Surrey The Surrey Business School and the School of Hospitality and Tourism Management 2014-15
In order to register you will need to take along photographic ID. Suitable forms of ID are:
   •   A current signed passport
   •   A national/EU identification card

Please take a photocopy of the Personal Details and Current Visa pages in your passport with you when you
register. If you need help getting the appropriate copies please ask for assistance at the helpdesk (34MS01).
All students need to register in order to become full members of the University and to access the full range
of services available. Students who fail to register will not be officially recognised by the University and
will not be able to take part in assessments or obtain a student campus card.

Campus Card
You will receive your campus card once you have registered. You will need your card to gain access to the
Library, IT facilities, and other buildings.
Your campus card is also your Students’ Union identity card, carrying the NUS logo so you can go to
Students’ Union events and show it when you want to redeem student discounts in participating stores or
venues. It is important to look after your campus card as you may have to pay for a replacement if it is lost,
damaged or stolen.

Registration of Overseas Nationals
Students from some countries may be required to register with the Police. Please check the visa stamp in
your passport carefully as this is the best way to see if you need to register. Please refer to the Exchange
Student Guide (sent to you on confirmation of your place at Surrey,) also available via:
http://www2.surrey.ac.uk/exchanges/incoming/studinfo
There will be an opportunity to register with the police on campus on the following dates at the start of the
Autumn Semester.

       Wednesday 1st October 9am -15.30pm rooms: Oak 3 and Oak 4

       Wednesday 8th October 9am -15.30pm rooms: Oak 3 and Oak 4

       Wednesday 15th October 9am -15.30pm rooms: Oak 3 and Oak 4

       Thursday 23rd October 9am -15.30pm rooms: Oak 3 and Oak 4

Students who require Police Registration will be able to book an appointment through the website once they
have registered with the University. The booking form will be available in September. If you are visiting the
University in the spring you will need to go to the Surrey Police Headquarters in person. Please call 01483
639516 to make an appointment.

Medical Treatment
If you are an EU/EEA student or an international student on a programme of six months or more, most
treatments on the NHS (National Health Service) are free. You will need to register with Guildowns Group
Practice on campus or a more local doctor if you live further away. If you are here for less than six months
we advise you to take out private health insurance. We suggest you register with the Guildowns Group
Practice if possible as soon as you are able, as failure to register within the first month of your arrival may
mean you are unable to receive free treatment.

English Language Testing
All new students who are not native English speakers are required to take a reading, writing and grammar
test. The time and location of the tests will be given in your orientation programme.
Welcome to the University of Surrey The Surrey Business School and the School of Hospitality and Tourism Management 2014-15
The tests identify any difficulties you may have so that we can offer you support and access to English
classes. Please note that these tests will not affect your place on any of the modules you have chosen. You
can visit the Department of Language & Translation (AP Building, 2nd floor) at any time if you feel you
need support with English for your studies.
The writing test is paper-based; the reading and grammar tests must be completed in Welcome Week and
can be found online http://magic.surrey.ac.uk/elsp/servlet/SignIn

PRACTICAL INFORMATION
Room numbers
The University of Surrey Campus is split into two: the main Stag Hill campus and the Research Park. All of
your lectures and tutorials will be based at the Stag Hill campus unless otherwise specified.
The locations of your lectures and tutorials are given on your timetable using a system of room number,
building and level/floor. An example could be 34MS01 which means room 34, in the Management School,
level 1. Below are some useful descriptions which might help you get used to the system. The numbers refer
to the key on the campus map.
MS: Management School, Rik Medlik Building (no. 23)
AP: Austin Pearce Building (no. 22)
TB: Teaching block (no. 7)
LT: Lecture Theatres (no. 12)
Senate House: main Administration Building (no. 14)

Semester Weeks
The University academic calendar is divided into two semesters, each made up of 15 teaching weeks.
Welcome Week does not include teaching and as such is counted as week 0.

The week commencing 6th October 2014 is termed week 1 for the autumn semester. The week commencing
9th February 2015 is week 1 of the spring semester.

Academic staff will often refer to ‘teaching weeks’ discussing deadlines or important stages in the teaching
of a module. It is good practice to be aware which teaching week you are in as this will help you to manage
your work and ensure you do not miss any important deadlines.

How will the School contact me?
You will hear from us via email, using your University email account. It is your responsibility to check your
email, on a daily basis.
Important and sometimes urgent information will be communicated to you by email. Please make sure you
also check the UG notice boards on level two of the Management Building for important information and
log in to SurreyLearn for important academic information/updates.

SurreyLearn
Like many Universities the University of Surrey utilises a virtual learning environment or ‘blackboard’
through which students can access important academic information, have discussions with each other and
receive feedback on their assessments.
Information regarding SurreyLearn will be included in your orientation programme and we strongly advise
you to attend. SurreyLearn will become a big part of your experience here at Surrey and you must make sure
you are able to log on and access this service. Often cancellations or room changes for lectures and tutorials
are posted, so you need to have access once you have confirmed your module options.

The Student Support Help Desk
If you have a query and there is no one available in the Exchange Office, we suggest you visit the Student
Support Help Desk (34MS01). The helpdesk is open Monday to Thursday 9.15am to 5pm, Friday 9.15am to
4.45pm. The help desk is manned during the stated times so that you can ask any questions you might have
regarding your studies and/or regarding your wellbeing (pastoral care).
Contact Details: Fbelhelp@surrey.ac.uk or contact 01483 682124.

ACADEMIC INFORMATION
Modules
Incoming students are advised to take modules at the same level as their current studies at their Home
University. Therefore, if you are a second year student we advise you to take level 2 modules.
There is the possibility of taking modules from different levels. If you would like to do this please discuss
your preferences with the Exchange Administrator. We understand that visiting students are often required
to find modules that form part of their degree at their Home University. For this reason we try to offer a
wide range of undergraduate modules, but clashes may occur in your timetable if you choose from different
levels.
Below you will find a list of all undergraduate management modules running in the academic year 2013-14.

Teaching methods
All undergraduate modules are taught via lectures and either tutorials/seminars. Lectures usually last for two
hours and are held in large lecture theatres in different venues across the campus. Tutorials and seminars are
smaller meetings of approximately 30 students and give attendees an opportunity to discuss topics with their
peers and ask questions.

Timetables
Timetables exist for each different undergraduate degree programme offered by the Surrey Business School
and the School of Hospitality and Tourism Management
       SBS

   •   Accounting and Finance
   •   Business and Retail Management
   •   Business Management
   •   Business Management (Entrepreneurship)
   •   Business Management (Human Resource Management)
   •   Business Management (Marketing)
   •   International Business Management
   •   Sustainable Enterprise Management

       SHTM

   •   International Event Management
   •   International Hospitality and Tourism Management
   •   International Hospitality Management
   •   International Tourism Management

You will receive a copy of the teaching timetables for each programme and usually be free to choose which
lecture/tutorial to attend for each module. Once you choose you must attend the same sessions each week.
Each module will have a lecture (normally 2 hours long) and a tutorial (1 hour long) which you must
attend once a week. If you notice that a module does not appear to have a tutorial on the timetable this
Welcome to the University of Surrey The Surrey Business School and the School of Hospitality and Tourism Management 2014-15
means the tutorial groups will be decided in the lecture and time/locations of the tutorial confirmed at a later
 date.
 As an incoming exchange student you are not enrolled on any one programme, this means your study
 timetable is unique to you and needs to be created using the blank timetable form found as an appendix to
 this handbook.
 Please feel free to come along to the Exchange Office to speak to the Exchange Administrator if you would
 like some guidance with your timetable. The Incoming Exchange Administrator, Ms Deborah Edwards,
 works every week day and you can make an appointment by emailing Deborah on: d.edwards@surrey.ac.uk
 or by visiting the Exchange Office in person.

 Academic Guidance
 Please note that you must choose 4 modules and if a module has pre-requisites you will need to enclose a
 course outline for the previous study, and proof that you have attended the course. Surrey Business School
 and School of Tourism and Hospitality Management students may under some circumstances choose
 modules from other faculties, with proof of pre-requisites. However depending on the agreement with your
 home University it is unlikely that more than one of your module choices can come from other faculties. For
 information on other modules please look at the module catalogue on the web-site.
•   The majority of UG Management modules carry 15 Surrey credits (7.5 ECTS for Erasmus students).
      There are a few exceptions, so please make sure you are aware how many credits each of module
      carries. Further information can be found on the module catalogue:
      https://sits.surrey.ac.uk/live/ipo/MOD_PRO_DLMC.htm#School%20of%20Management

  •   Home Surrey students take a total of 120 Surrey credits in a full academic year. We advise students to
      take at least 60 credits per semester, and 120 credits if here for a full year. Students are not permitted
      to take more or less than this.

  •   Examinations will take place between 19/01/2015 - 30/01/2015 for semester 1 and between 01/06/15 –
      19/06/15 for semester 2. Other methods of assessment may take place during classes/throughout the
      semester. Students should be aware that they are expected to stay until their exams are finished and
      not return to their home university until all assessments are completed.
