CONNECT WEEK
is your chance to form connections that last a lifetime.
Connect Week (Week 1 of the semester) marks the beginning of semester and is the perfect opportunity to… connect! This week the focus is on connecting with your online learning world (getting to know and use your online resources) and connecting with students, staff and the broader university community!
There will loads going on at Bedford Park campus during the week too, including free food, live music, clubs and stalls, entertainment and social events.
Watch our Connect Week video to get an idea of what the week is all about!
Flinders offers a number of mentoring programs which will provide you with the support if you need some guidance, peer advice or are just feeling overwhelmed as you start your University journey. You can check out all the programs available on the Mentoring Programs webpage.
