Subject Taster Lectures

Teaching staff from a range of subject departments will be running online taster lectures from November 2022-January 2023. These sessions are designed to give you a taste of what it would be like to study at Durham. They begin with a short lecture, followed by a Q&A session. If you'd like to book a space, complete our booking form.

All of our subject taster lectures will be recorded and uploaded to this page shortly after, so you'll be able to watch them again, or catch up with any that you've missed.
