Events
Debriefing session
You will be invited to attend a debriefing session when you return to the University of Melbourne. It is an opportunity to tell staff of your experiences while abroad. It is also a chance to talk and compare experiences with other returning students. The sessions are designed to offer you strategies to help you settle back to life in Melbourne. Please attend this session.
The debriefing sessions are run in conjunction with the University of Melbourne Student Counselling Service and are informal occasions so that you arrive when you can and leave when you must. In addition to refreshments, some go to the pub afterwards.
Helping new exchange students
Melbourne Global Mobility needs volunteers willing to talk about their overseas experiences at information sessions for prospective exchange students. Please let Melbourne Global Mobility staff know if you are prepared to do this. Staff will contact you closer to the time to book you into a session or two.
You may also find that, if you have given us permission to give out your email address, students planning their exchange will want to contact you about where you went on exchange. They need as much help as you can provide. You may prefer to write a detailed description of all the basic information and give it to us to pass to students in the first instance. If they have further questions we can then suggest that they contact you directly.
