Yes, its an "IT Orientation Camp", thus anyone doing a subject IT related will/should be going.

A couple of my friends and I have also recieved the letter in the mail and according to them, it's compulsorary for all full-time students, unless of course, you are granted permission not to go.

Yup, I got the letter too today. This camp run by the IT faculty makes it sound like the uni staff don't reckon we can make friends or something... I mean how many other facultys run camps? *lol* :p

At UTS, the IT, Law and Engineering faculties organisation an orientation camp each year. The cam is your introduction to uni and your faculty, so basically the camp covers most of your orientation stuff, hence you don't have to much during o-week, unless you want to of course.

The IT camp is aimed to full time students (mostly the recent school leavers), though the non-recent school leavers and part-time students are welcome to attend. The letters were sent out to anyone doing a course in the IT faculty (so any course listed under the IT section of the handbook http://www.handbook.uts.edu.au ). So thats pretty much BScIT, BScIT Innovation, BBus/BComp, BIT and the BScIT combined degrees with Law and International Studies. The BMathComp students may also attend as well.

The purpose of the camp is to mainly introduce you to uni life and get you to meet some older students and staff members who will be teaching you. Most of the camp, however, it mostly free time and team activities to help you meet other students and make some new friends. I highly recommend this camp, as its a great way to make new friends and once you start uni on the 28th of February, you will already someone and have people to sit with in the lectures. It is a lot easier to meet new people this way than at uni in lectures, especially if you are shy.

Hope this helps!

I'll be going to the camp and I don't know anyone else doing bus/comp. A friend of mine will be doing a design course at UTS and I think another friend will be doing bus/law there too.
