C&C Social Activities

C&C Social Activities

Studying in a new country can lead to great experiences, especially when you can begin to make sense of your new surroundings! These activities are an opportunity to put your academic work aside for a while, relax and meet other students and staff from the International College and University Library.  

Events will take place through the academic year. So why not join our vibrant community to meet other international students and make new friends. 

Coffee & Conversation

We meet every month to chat about your experience as an international student. Choose a topic and get ready to share your thoughts. No need to register in advance; just turn up on the day and join the discussion! Home students and staff welcome. Free coffee and biscuits will be provided.
