About this event

The BPKSA is hosting BPK 101, a welcome event to new first-year students entering BPK as well as anyone who would like to get to know our department and make some new connections. It’s common for incoming students to be a little nervous or not know a ton of people within their field of study when entering a university setting. This is exactly why we are putting on an orientation and icebreaker style event called BPK 101 in the beginning of the fall semester. This includes knowing about the common valuable resources such as BPK advising and the BPK co-op office, but also about the various opportunities they can choose to participate in as a BPK student, such as their student union (BPKSA). We’ll briefly touch on career options post-graduation, but the main focus of BPK 101 is the undergraduate experience. This is a great way to get students to interact virtually with peers in the form of a healthy competition through the games and have great conversations.

As well as, we will have a panel of BPK professors at the end of the event to hold a Question and Answer session for students to get to know their professors better. There will be various games and icebreakers played throughout the night and the teams with the most points at the end of the night will win the group gift card prizes. The students will be in groups of 5 and each member of the winning team will receive a gift card prize. There will also be 4 bonus raffle draw prizes for participants which will be selected and announced at the end of the night.
