Clare: Welcome to Skills Hub. This website will help you to develop your academic skills at university. There's plenty of advice from students and from staff. You‘re not expected to have all the skills you need for university already. We will help you to develop them during your time here. We also run workshops and tutorials, and you can talk to a student mentor while you're here.
Remember, you can always come back to Skills Hub for advice whenever you need it. Good luck with your studies at Sussex.
