The morning of 6th September marks the start of a bold step for over a hundred new faces as they walk into the Naturalis Museum in Leiden, to join the Industrial Ecology Programme at Leiden Unviersity and Delft University of Technology.

Shift was on location to welcome these students as they embark on their Master’s: breaking the ice between classmates-to-be with our introduction session to the study association and rounds of Mentimeter and Kahoot quizzes. The fastest most knowledgable teams won Shift merchandise!

After the official introduction event by the University, was the time for the Introduction Scavenger Hunt! Participants – split into small teams – walked, dashed and photographed their way across Leiden city with their cute succulent mascots. The creativity was flowing throughout the event – Shift received a slew of cool, funny, sometimes quirky submissions of the teams completing their tasks in quick succession.
