INTERNATIONAL OPEN DAY

I’ve been in contact with Mary McMenamin from Erasmus office about participation in International Open Day in January. We volunteered to take a part in an Open day to get any relevant information about student coming into DkIT. Next mails comes from Noreen from the International Office which contacted me about  draft schedule for the days and few times were highlighted to help out but most of it was evening time which we wouldn’t  been available for. Norren pass it on to Marty Cassells, President of ESN to contact me on this which updated me on the event details.

I decided what time and date would suit me but due to upcoming health condition I wasn’t able to participate as I had to take few weeks of to recover. I pass it on our group Facebook group and Slawek, Henry and Kevin came in on the day of the event to participate in it.

I’ve prepared sample questions and I’ve posted them on our Facebook group. I’ve also asked group members to come up with some more question for student who wants to come and study in DkIT.

HAVE YOU CHECKED DKIT WEBSITE OR ANY COLLEGE APPLICATION ABOUT DKIT BEFORE COMING IN?
WHAT WOULD THEY LIKE TO SEE WHEN COMING OVER?
WHAT WOULD THEY ASK FOR?
WHAT WOULD HELP YOU TO MAKE A DECISION TO COME AND STUDY IN HERE?

Unfortunately there was not much happening at the time in the day chosen and our group didn’t get a chance to help out as it was delayed.
