Annual Honours Thesis Day
Please join us to celebrate the work of our undergraduate students who will be presenting their research from English Studies 4999E, Writing Studies 4999E, Film Studies 4409E and Theatre Studies 4999E Theses courses. This is a wonderful opportunity to support students and friends - and for current third year students to learn more about our theses courses.

Wash hands thoroughly and often and avoid touching your face.
