Reading this Welcome Pack
There are nine sections to the Welcome Pack. We recommend you read them in order, but you can move between sections using the buttons at the bottom of each section or the navigation menu - located on the left side of the screen, if you are using a computer.
On a phone or tablet the section menu can be found just above the page title:
University Jargon
Every large organisation has a lot of strange words and acronyms which it uses to describe its daily workings, and this is often referred to as "jargon". Encountering a lot of jargon can be confusing when you are new to an organisation, so we've compiled a list of common terms you will read and hear during your time at University.

Finding your way around LUBS
The University of Leeds is a big place, and it can be confusing for new students to find their way around. The Business school has several different buildings across campus, including our main home at the beautiful and historic Maurice Keyworth Building.

LUBS Room Numbers
New students can sometimes find the numbering for University rooms confusing. It is easy to find your way when you remember they are split into three parts:
Room type: This will be an abbreviation, such as SR (seminar room) or LT (lecture theatre).
Floor level: This number tells you whether the room can be found on the lowest level of a building (G for ground), or whether you will need to take the stairs or lift to the first floor, or above (1,2,3 etc.).
Room number: once you are on the correct floor, the doors will be numbered in sequence - follow them until you find the room number you are looking for!
