The Carnegie Mellon Portugal Orientation Day at CMU was launched by introductions from students and staff members. An overview and expectations of the ICTI program was given by Lori Spears, Associate Director of ICTI@CMU. Following the overview, Leid Zejnilovic, a third year Ph.D. student in the Technological Change and Entrepreneurship program gave reflections on the Carnegie Mellon Portugal program, campus living and social resources. This event was held on August 22, 2011. |
Both new and returning students were exposed to the traditional Pittsburgh summer amusement park, Kennywood, which is known for its festive atmosphere. Students enjoyed the balance of the day experiencing the thrills of the park and sharing unforgettable moments. The orientation trip gave students the opportunity to network with their peers in a sociable environment and the day ended with a group photo under the famous Kennywood arch.
