With an online programme it will be difficult for students to build relationships with lecturers and others on the course.

As an introduction to the courses each lecturer could record a short video message for students to see - that is up close and has a personal touch to it.

Student Journey - UG Year 2, German and Management

# data[].attributes.body
April of previous year: Choose courses for second year
September: Get your timetable for the new school year, go back to freshers club nights, help induct first years, lead society groups, go to 'returning students' induction, first classes jump right into the material.
October: Stress-free month, not many assignments, reading week (travel), Amplify trading course, academic rep elections, planning for the ball begins.
November: Reading week ends, stress month begins. All assignments given to you at once, while classes are getting more advanced, also while midterms are happening. Weather getting colder AKA depression :). Make plans for winter break.
December: Finish classes, get to work on assignments due in Jan.  Study for exams later on in the month. Either go home to see family, or family comes to see you, days off to visit Christmas markets, do holiday things.
January: Cram for exams, pull all nighters to finish papers, then head straight back to school to start new material. First term classes disappear like you never took them.
February: Same as October, stress free month, reading week (travel), finish planning for the ball, keep working on academic rep stuff (workstreams, etc).
March: Business Ball! Otherwise a very stressful month, deadlines, midterms, planning for finals.

but then coronavirus happens and everything goes to s***.

Under normal circumstances, April would have been super stressful with SO many deadlines and exams, but instead, the beginning was fine, and then April 21st-May 5th was paper after exam after paper after paper after paper after exam, and now I want to cry.

September: Helping with induction week, catching up with old buddies and making many new ones during freshers' and induction weeks, as these are the weeks when most students choose to socialise and branch out regardless of their year and course ; I feel like this is the most important part of the beginning of each academic year, socially at least.
October: mid-terms, lectures, nothing memorable
November: lectures, committee meetings, living life in general;
December: revision, lots of visits to Winter Wonderland, Christmas, holiday season in full force;
January: Exam session, the beginning of term 2, working on various extracurriculars inside and outside of uni, applying for internships (lol silly me) ;
February : getting hyped for the Annual Business Ball, travelling a bit, still lectures but I could feel myself getting a bit careless
March: travelling, amazing Business Ball vibes, online lectures and tutorials.... and obviously the big bad C word happened worldwide.
April: uhh... i fixed my sleeping schedule
May: exams and looking forward to the next academic year
