Upcoming Taster Days and Masterclasses
On Friday 27 June 2025 we have our School and College Open Day where you can bring your whole year group to get a feel for university life, where students can sample all of our subjects.
With talks, tours and drop-in sessions taking place throughout our Open Days, there's plenty to do! The full programme for our Open Days is made available to view in advance of each event.
Explore our campus, tour our state-of-the-art facilities and take a look around our accommodation. You can also meet our support teams, and visit the Student's Union, Library and Sports Centre. And if you need a pit stop, head to one of our many restaurants or cafes
FAQS
What is a Taster Day?
A Taster Day is your chance to experience a day in the life of a Keele student. Designed for students in Year 12, Taster Days run in a variety of subject areas, with each one containing three taster sessions in your chosen subject, led by Keele academics. There will also be the opportunity to meet and chat with current Keele students.
Who is it for?
Our Taster Days are tailored for students currently studying in Year 12 who want to find out more about university and the subjects they may like to study. You’ll get an in-depth look at the courses that we have on offer here at Keele and what it’s like to study them, as well as valuable experiences to use in your personal statement.
Where can I attend a Taster Day?
All Taster Days are held on Keele University’s beautiful 600 acre campus. View details on how to find us.
Is lunch provided?
Lunch will not be provided for these events. We recommend students bring their own lunch, but there will be outlets available on campus to purchase refreshments.
