Congratulations on your decision to become a University of Mauritius student.
As you will discover, UoM is a dynamic and internationally recognised university with a long established tradition in providing excellence in education. During orientation we also encourage you to familiarise yourself with the Student Handbook and its contents. Please browse through the CD-ROM in the orientation kit so that you apprise yourselves of all the rules and regulations of UoM .
Prof. I. Fagoonee
Vice-Chancellor
Transition to university is an exciting step in your lives but also one to which it takes some time to become accustomed. It is very important that you take the opportunity to get to know students from different backgrounds to your own. Orientation Week will acquaint you with university life, help you find your way around campus, and give you an insight into the university’s organisation.
Learning and studies are an important part of the preparation for your future careers, but you should not overlook the opportunities for other pursuits. The Sports and Recreational activities and organisations like Clubs and Societies are there to help you get the most out of your time at Reduit. Participating fully in university life, not only in lecture theatres and tutorials, but also the broader aspects of extracurricular university life will be most rewarding.
As part of your learning journey at UoM we will be working with you throughout your studies to help you develop other skills and attributes that will mould your personality as a whole. Specifically we would like you to develop your skills of analysis, critical-thinking, decision-making and communication, as well as an understanding of the social, environmental and cultural context of your disciplines. That is why work-based learning has been embedded into the curriculum and winter/summer courses introduced to equip you with more soft skills. When you graduate from UoM you will possess more than a degree. You will be an independent thinker, an effective problem solver and have the skills and knowledge to adapt to an ever-changing world.
It is therefore my pleasure to welcome you and invite you to embark on a lifetime partnership with your university. I hope you enjoy orientation and excel in your studies.
