    First day for Postgrad students 2012/13
    I know that Durham says the first day of the 2012/13 term will begin on October 1 2012 for most Postgrad departments but I was wondering if this is when classes will begin or if the first week will just be an induction week? I've checked the term dates on the Durham website and it says the first week beginning October 1 is induction week for undergraduate students and then classes begin October 8 for undergrads. Is it the same for postgrads?

    Hi,

    When your induction week starts depends on your department and more specifically on your MSc/MA. What I can say with certaintly is that for sure you will have an induction week but you should check with your department in order to be sure when is that takes place.
