Vice-Chancellor’s Welcome Celebration
Don't miss the Day of Celebration where campus will be filled with performers and entertainment and the University of Sussex’s Vice-Chancellor, Professor Sasha Roseneil, will host a special event to welcome all new students.
As a Sussex student, you’re part of a School that sits within one of our four Faculties.
The Welcome Celebration will be held at the Jubilee Lecture Theatre and will include:
- a keynote address from the Vice-Chancellor
- talks from key members of your Faculty.
After the talks, you’ll have the chance to:
- enjoy refreshments
- meet and connect with Sussex staff and fellow students.
This celebration marks the end of Welcome Week and the start of your Sussex journey. You can expect to find performers, musicians, and even a few animals across campus. Check back here for further details and to book your free ticket, later in the year.
