The First Annual Admissions Exhibition
The First Annual Admissions Exhibition was designed to help prospective King Khalid University students successfully transition from high school to college.
The program was a concerted effort by faculty and staff to ensure that incoming students feel comfortable and welcome in their new surroundings. It gave first-year students the opportunity to examine their academic abilities, interests and educational plans before their first semester of classes. The exhibition provided students with a basic understanding of what will be expected of them at King Khalid University and how their particular abilities and interests may fit with one or more of the University's majors.
“It is important for students to have the opportunity to interact with their classmates and instructors before classes begin,” said Dr. Abdullah Al Melhi, Dean.
The Faculty of Languages and Translation was exceptionally represented holding a host of interactive sessions for students including but not limited to:
- IELTS Information Session (Abdul Rauf Khan)
- Language Enhancement Program ( Dr. Charles Forman)
- Course Registration Overview (Nasser Hawamdeh and Farook Haji)
- Academic Counseling Overview (Dr. Basim Kanaan)
- E-Learning Overview (Mohsin Khan)
- A general welcome message (Matthew Paul)
- An interactive Q & A Session with a significant portion of faculty members
Parents and families were invited to attend the exhibition. Families were encouraged to participate to get acquainted with the campus, its policies, procedures, and services.
A big round of applause to all faculty members who represented the Faculty of Languages and Translation making it a huge success led by Dr. Ali Alamir, Vice Dean, and Dr. Fahad Otaif, Vice Dean for Academic Development and Quality.
As the new semester dawns, the class of 2020 will join upperclassmen in September 2016 to begin their journey towards success.
