In August we offer all our new bachelor students an introduction programme - the BLC Fresh programme - which has the intention of getting the students to socialise and to know each other, the campus and the BLC programme before the actual classes commence.

It is not mandatory to participate in the Fresh Programme, but we highly recommend that all new students attend it in order to receive a broad practical, academic, and social introduction to the education.

The BLC introduction programme is voluntarily organized by students from the BLC programme. These students put a lot of time and effort into making the intro programme a great and memorable experience for all the new students at the BLC study programme.
The first three days take place on the CBS campus. During these days the students will be introduced to each other, the teachers, the courses and the campus, among other things.

Following the first three days, the students and intro guides go on a five day cabin trip. The purpose of this trip is for the students to get to know each other on a more personal level and giving them a common experience, at the same time keeping focus on the study programme. The cabin trip consists of a well-balanced programme of academic and social content. Students will participate in team building activities, case studies and social events such as cultural games and parties.

Experience shows that the activities in the introduction programme help new students to an easier beginning of the study programme.
When the intro programme ends, the mentor programme begins. The mentor programme is there to guide the students through their first year. Mentors are “older” BLC students, who know the courses and challenges of the programme. Throughout the first year there will be mentoring sessions in groups of approximately 15 students, which deal with expectations to the programme, how to study effectively, group work and exams, among other things. The mentors are also there to help students individually outside of the sessions.
