Programme of events for International and European students
Studying in another language and culture can be exciting as well as challenging and even at times, stressful. The learning culture in the UK may seem quite different from the one in your home country; and the methods of learning and teaching may seem unfamiliar and confusing.
To help you onto the path to academic success, the Student Learning Advisory Service (in partnership with the International Development ) has organised a number of social/academic events for all undergraduate and postgraduate students from outside the UK.
So come along, find out more about how to get the most out of your time here at the University of Kent and use this opportunity to make friends with students from over 150 countries.
All events are free. Booking is now closed.
