In 2021, the organization of the welcome day was divided into three parts. Each part was organized by two board members and some other helped during the day.
Part I: Presentation
- Daria and Martin set up some slides to explain the CBB study plan and present the CCBB among other topics.
- They presented their slides to the students in Zürich directly after the formal welcome from the study administrators.
- The slides were previously sent to a CBB student living in Basel who took the time to present them to the new students in Basel.
- The BSA oreder some goody bags were hand over for the Biotechnology students and the few CBB students in Basel
- The CBB students were forgotten when VIS ordered their goody bags since the CBB master is not part of D-INFK. A solution was found in the end and the students in Zürich also received a bag but it is important to remind VIS to order bags for us at least two months before the welcome day!
Part II: Treasure hunt
- Ana and Hugo took the new students for a small tour around the building in Zentrum
- The students were sent off around 13h to grab lunch in the place or their choice
- They were asked to meet again around 15h in Polyterrasse to start the treasure hunt
- Using the map drawn for the occasion, the students explored the city and completed some tasks
- The final step was to meet in Irchel park for the BBQ
Part III: BBQ
- Raya and Jan organized a BBQ for the students to meet after the treasure hunt
- The expenses were paid using the VIS card and D-BSSE paid back afterward
