The University of Calgary in Qatar (UCQ) hosted approximately 200 students in a series of introductory school visits, launched in collaboration with the Ministry of Education and Higher Education (MoEHE).

The visits took place on October 20 and 21 on UCQ’s campus and welcomed boys and girls from 10 schools.

UCQ dean and professor Dr Deborah White said the initiative presents a great opportunity for UCQ to motivate young students and give them a clear idea of what it means to become a nurse and the instrumental role that nurses play in supporting the country’s health vision and aspirations.

The introductory school visits included a tour of the campus and a series of workshops and presentations by Dr White and the Student and Enrolment Services team.

Participating students engaged in interactive sessions and experimental activities as they explored UCQ’s Experiential Learning Centre, Simulation Centre and laboratory.

Sessions and tours were held in smaller groups and social distancing measures were implemented in line with Covid-19 precautionary procedures
