Orientation Week for the 2026 intake will welcome new students into the AIMS academic community through a structured program of introductions, guidance sessions, and student support briefings. The week is designed to help students begin with clarity, confidence, and a strong understanding of university expectations.
Starting university with the right foundation
The transition into university is easier when students understand how the institution works. Orientation helps new entrants become familiar with academic systems, registration procedures, communication channels, conduct expectations, and the support services available to them throughout the year.
It also gives students the opportunity to begin forming peer connections and asking practical questions before formal teaching starts.
What new students can expect
During orientation, students are introduced to the structure of academic life and the offices that support them during study.
- Introductions to key student and academic services
- Guidance on learning expectations and study habits
- Information on registration, advising, and university communication
- Opportunities to meet staff and fellow students
Preparing for a strong first semester
Orientation is one of the most important entry points for student success. By the end of the program, new students should have a clearer picture of how to engage with classes, stay organized, and use the systems that support progress throughout the semester.
