Welcome to Trimester 3 2017
On behalf of the GBS community I would like to welcome all our commencing students who join us this trimester. We're so glad to have you as part of our community. Starting university is exciting but it can also be quite daunting — so we've created the Student Survival Guide to highlight the most important things you’ll need to know.
Welcome back to our continuing students. I hope you enjoyed your short break and you're ready to make the most out of Trimester 3.
In this edition
In this edition of The GBS Edge you will find information on student opportunities, tips for effective time management, upcoming events and more.
Good luck with your studies this trimester and I look forward to seeing you around campus.
Best wishes
Professor Ross Guest
Dean (Learning and Teaching)
