Get an introduction to #CurtinLife and enjoy free snacks and drinks with Café Connect on Tuesdays each week throughout the semester.
Each week a different guest speaker will address a topic like connecting with your faculty, or careers and employment for 10 minutes, allowing you time to relax and chat with your fellow students or enjoy our range of games and activities afterwards.
Whether you are an international student navigating your way through studying in Perth, or a domestic student looking to make new friends, all are welcome!
