2015 ORIENTATION GUIDEO-WEEK

WELCOME TO QUT

This is your guide to Orientation Week. O-Week is all about getting

involved, making friends and exploring your University. Check out the

stalls, events, activities and entertainment on offer throughout the

week and get a taste of life at QUT. Remember, this is only a small

selection of what’s happening around each campus during O-Week,

so make sure you check out the stalls and events for yourself!

“Orientation was way more than what I expected… The energy and vibe around campus made the transition so much easier.”

Sushant Chawla 5th Year Engineering and IT

“During the start of orientation, I felt nervous as I didn’t know anyone and what university life is like. One of the QUT Connectors started talking to me and I introduced myself. After a long conversation, I felt more confident and made lots of new friends.”

Ashley Winn2nd Year Business and Exercise Science

“Orientation is a great platform for you to meet new people and network. So you just have to get involved!”

Matalena Graff3rd Year Business

“Don’t be afraid to wander around and ask people at the stalls what they’re all about. You can learn so much about extracurricular events just by exploring at O-Week!”

Chris Anderson2nd Year Clinical Exercise Physiology
