And we’re off! A huge welcome to all our Freshers, undergraduate and postgraduate, who have arrived in College this week. This year we launched a brand new induction programme for all our undergraduate Freshers to help them get ready for the start of term - the picture is from the very first welcome session! Thanks to all the amazing JCR helpers and college staff members working to make this happen...and thanks to all the families, carers and supporters who carried all the boxes 😉

Every few weeks a Fitz postgrad will share their experience of Fitz and some of their favourite pictures. Name: Stepan Course: PhD in Slavonic Studies Nationality: Ukrainian Funding: Harding Distinguished Postgraduate Scholarship “For me, what makes Fitzwilliam an amazing college is the strong dedication of students to the community. It can safely be said that Fitzwilliam is among those colleges where students contribute to academic initiatives, events and more broadly, to the community lifestyle. This is the community of collective learning, the place of mutual exchange of ideas and the environment of like-minded individuals who share values and strong motivation to support each other.” #CambridgePostgrad #PhD #Masters #CambridgeUniversity
