Message from the Buddy Programme head

Syed Wajeeh Hassan, Pakistan

As a student at Â鶹´«Ã½Ó³»­ myself, I believe that the start of your university journey marks the beginning of something special. It¡¯s an entirely new chapter of your life, filled with exciting opportunities, new experiences, and a whole world of unique people to meet. I believe that the start of a journey as special as this should not be one filled with anxiety or panic, but rather one of excitement and hope. I truly hope that we can positively impact the journey of these new students, who will become our future classmates and friends.

On 21 Sept 2024, a trip was planned to encourage interaction between students, foster new friendships and provide a cultural introduction to Malaysia. The day¡¯s itinerary included a visit to the Perdana Botanical Garden in Kuala Lumpur, followed by a stop at Dataran Merdeka.

Throughout the day, the students explored the locations and participated in various activities planned by the organising team. At the end of the day, each student was left with fond memories, and the friendships formed during this trip will undoubtedly help them settle into their new life at Â鶹´«Ã½Ó³»­ University.
