Al Rayyan International University College (ARIU) in Partnership with the University of Derby organised and hosted the first induction programme for new students in the new campus at Al Jazi Tower, West Bay.
The objective was to help newcomers quickly adapt to the new academic environment and familiarise themselves with different aspects of academic and social life on campus, it was explained in a statement. The freshmen were introduced to university staff, provided with detailed information about the delivery of the academic programmes, and the provision of different academic and non-academic services.



Students from the BA and BSc programmes in International Business Management, International Hospitality Management, and International Tourism Management participated in the orientation. New students were taken on a detailed tour of the new campus and met with existing students, who were very happy to share their overall experience at ARIU with the new joiners.
Freshmen were introduced to some of the university’s graduates, who provided them with advice and guidance about prospective career opportunities. The orientation programme was complemented with a special tour to Sheikh Faisal Bin Qassim Al Thani Museum, where students learned more about Qatar’s rich culture and history.
On this occasion, Dr. Ivan Ninov, executive dean of ARIU said: “We are very pleased and excited to welcome our new students to our beautiful new campus. With us they will be able to find their purpose, become more resilient, make friends for life, and grow into successful professionals, and entrepreneurs. Our university is very well situated to provide students with great opportunities for learning, and our location in the heart of Doha is vital to the institution’s identity and success as a business school.”
