Drop in at the marquee (car park 4) to visit the different zones and listen to live music. This year, the Faculty of Engineering is celebrating the 50th anniversary of the commencement of its first course.

The Open Week, Discover University, is being held between 10 and 15 November. However, from Monday 11 to Friday 15 November activities are reserved for secondary school students and sixth formers.

The various events are aimed at attracting prospective university students, alumni and interested members of the general public who would like to find out how the university works and plays.
The main large tent, the marquee in car park 4, will have internal booths according to themes. Lecture rooms in the Mikiel Anton Vassalli Conference Centre and in other lecture centres, University House and the Sir Temi Zammit Hall will be utilised.
