Our Open Days on Friday 6 and Saturday聽7 July聽were a big success and we would like to take the opportunity to thank our community for their support.
Over 11,000 visitors, including prospective students and their guests, were welcomed to campus by our student ambassadors and staff, live music from our student bands, and not forgetting our first ever Open Day blimp!
Our President and Vice-Chancellor, Professor Sir Christopher Snowden commented:
鈥淚 want to thank everyone who worked hard to make this year鈥檚 Open Days on聽Friday 6听补苍诲听Saturday聽7 July such a success.聽The overall preparation meant that the presentation over the two days was extremely well received by our visitors – many of whom told me how welcoming they felt the University was and that they had a very positive impression.
鈥淚t was great to see our current students, Students鈥� Union, academic and professional services colleagues, including our grounds and catering teams, working together to create an outstanding experience for our prospective students and guests. Open Day events are very demanding in terms of effort, but they are so important in attracting students and creating an excellent impression of our University.
鈥淚 am very grateful to our University community for coming together to showcase what Southampton has to offer. 鈥�
Our 360掳 video booth gained a lot of attention from our guests as they could experience our campus and the city from a virtual viewpoint.
