Join us for one of the highlights of Welcome Week, as we come together on Friday 25 September for a University-wide celebration to mark the start of your Sussex journey.
Vice-Chancellor’s Welcome Celebration
The Vice-Chancellor's Welcome Celebration is your official welcome to the University of Sussex. Hosted by our Vice-Chancellor, Professor Sasha Roseneil, this special event brings together new students from across the University for an inspiring start to the academic year.
As a Sussex student, you'll belong to a School that sits within one of our four Faculties. During the event, you'll hear from the Vice-Chancellor and key members of your Faculty, helping you learn more about your academic community and the support available to you throughout your time at Sussex.
The celebration will include:
- a keynote welcome from the Vice-Chancellor
- Faculty talks from staff
- opportunities to meet fellow students and Sussex staff
- complimentary refreshments.
And that's not all. Campus will be buzzing with entertainment and activities throughout the day, including:
- a giant bubble blower
- a stilt walker
- animal cuddles
- a magician
- roving musicians.
Whether you're meeting new friends, getting to know your Faculty, or simply soaking up the atmosphere, this is a fantastic opportunity to celebrate becoming part of the Sussex community.
We can’t wait to welcome you to Sussex and celebrate the beginning of your university experience with you.
