This is why making new friends and embracing the university life are important steps to get the best from your experience at Brunel. So, what are the best places to meet people? How to socialise in university life?

Brunel will host the littest week of the year entirely dedicated to freshers and to all the students that want to have fun. Welcome Week consists of a range of activities, from silent disco to board games, that will allow you to meet a lot of people and that will get you started on your journey at Brunel.
