1. Attend IPSC and University Induction Programmes
programme includes lots of useful and interesting sessions and exciting activities to help you make new friends and get settled in to life at Queen's. Welcome and Orientation for the first semester of the 2012 / 2013 academic year will take place from 10-16 September 2012. Attendance on the International Welcome and Orientation programme is compulsory, so please ensure that you arrive on time to attend the programme so that you get the best possible start to your studies!It is important that you attend your School induction as it will include information on the course itself, your programme tutors/ supervisors etc., using the IT facilities etc. It is also a really important way of meeting people on your course, and probably some of your closest friends at University will be found here!
Details of your School induction programme will be sent to your Queen’s email account – it is important you check this regularly. Copies of the School induction timetables can also be found on the Welcome Week website.
Within the timetable your School has provided you with, there will be an allocated slot to attend the Vice-Chancellor’s Welcome. Again, it is important you attend this as it is your official ‘welcome’ to the University by the most senior staff.
